Not to everyone's taste but feels so much better than the GTI in terms of all round abilty (and the GTI was good!)

Gonna give it a good run-in then see how I can get an undetected remap. Would like 190bhp ish which would give me close to 200bhp / tonne :D

They are very cool and yours will look spot on with the white rims fitted.

I still think their very pricey though for a Fiat, 18K can get you a new Polo GTI but I am not trying to knock the Abarth at all.

Bet it certainly shifts :) Re-map is essential 8)

Looks very cool indeed dude.Only niggle im not too into would be all of the vinyl decals i would take them off and keep it looking clean and simple but thats only my opinion.

Hope it's treating you well and a decent run it should see it some good future life.
