New car ordered!!!

Post by polomint »

Well after almost 9 years on owning my polo gti, I have decided to have a change. The new car will not be available until Jan 2009, but it might be worth waiting for a Fiat 500 Abarth SS 160 bhp. Have really enjoyed driving the gti, have modified it a little and have had no problems apart from a gearbox rebuild. Has anybody else thought about this car. Have tested a 500 Sport 100 bhp and was quite impressed, but it was underpowered.

Not too keen on the looks of the Fiat, but the spec sounds nice!

Congratulations mate

Has the ouput actually been confirmed, seems a lot of guesses being banded about.

I really like the styling of the 500, they have captured the spirit of the original well IMO.

There are some cracking examples appearing:

The white one looks quite nice. The front bumper looks just plan weird though :?

The wide arch kit on the red one does look rather cool I think.

Nice choice, those 500's are lovely cars, especially an Abarth version, I bet it really honks :twisted:
