General Chat / 7 years old today
« on: January 16, 2016, 10:00:25 PM »Today I'm celebrating 7 years of Abarth ownership.
The car still looks like new and drives perfectly. Passed my MOT with only little advisories on low rear pads and the exhaust showing a few signs of age.
Today was is my 8th visit to Blyth for the Little Northern Meet (before anyone asks, the car was 1 day old at the first one so its 7years old at the 8th one)
Various predictions about Fiat reliability have been proved wrong, the mild still exhaust is still there (maybe not for much longer), the gearbox has been totally fault free and the leather interior hasn't fallen apart. Even the red stripes are still firmly stuck to the car and unblemished.
I've gone ever so slightly over average mileage, 84500 on the clock today
I've met many people over the 7 years of ownership and have made some valued friends, thank you everyone
The car is getting gradually closer to being a classic.
Still more than happy with my choice of "new" car :thumb:
