Having owned a 135 with standard exhaust and a 180comp with Monza.... The difference is night and day.  So much better with Monza

Just taken delivery of a 595c myself and interested to read about the sealing stuff...

Do you have any recommendations of products and descriptions of the process?

Cheers

Andy
The process is pretty simple. Each of these will come with two bottles, a cleaner and a sealant. Rinse the top to get dust off. Using a small brush use the cleaner which will remove previous sealant and any other gunk in the fabric. Rinse/let dry and mask around the bodywork/windscreens.   Spray the sealant on evenly, let dry. Remove any overspray immediately.

Once done water will bead on the fabric. Although my car is always garaged it's been over a year since I've done mine (lazy!) and water still beads.

Thanks, will give oit a try when I've had the car a little while

Hi all

After owning a 135 Custom for just over a year I couldn't resist an upgrade to this... A Record Grey 595c Competizione MTA and I am loving it.

The noise is simply addictive!  All I need now is some sunshine  :)

Turn lights on and put your hand or a cloth over the top centre of the tft screen and the lights should come on in the boost gauge.

Cheers

Thames Abarth in Slough have done me a great deal on a series 3 that I pick up this week.

Worth a call as I think they have access to a few

For Sale / A500 Custom in Gara White for sale - 64 plate with 8,250 miles in Edinburgh
« on: June 02, 2016, 08:46:39 PM »
Hi all

I may have got a bit trigger happy and have just purchased an new Abarth 595c Competizione so need to sell the current Abarth.

It is a 64 plate car first registered in January 2015. A euro 6 Abarth 500 custom 135bhp with the TFT dash.  It is Gara White with the red Abarth side stripes sitting on standard 16" anthracite alloys.  It has a full service history and has cover 8,250 miles from new, all by me. 

I have added a few bits to the car including red/Crome wheel caps, aluminium gear lever, aluminium petrol cap and BMC filter.  Other than that the car is totally standard.

It is in as new condition with no marks, dents or wheel damage and will make a great car for someone.  Brian1612 can vouch for its condition.

I can provide as many pictures as you might want and by the way, the car is I Edinburgh.

I am going to post on eBay but wanted to see if there were any buyers on the forum first.  Looking for offers in the region of £10,750 for her.

Feel free to pass on if you know anyone that may be looking.

Thanks

Andy

Pm me if you have questions.
