Dear all,
This forum is all but ebded simply because more people use Facebook.
You can post something on here and you might if youre lucky get the post read and a reply.
Thats not to say this forum doesnt have its uses.
But if a figure were needed, i would say at least 90% - 95% of members use facebook.
In recent weeks I've moved completely to using Facebook for information and advice.

Abarth 500, 595 & 695 / Concentric release bearing/slave cylinder gond bang
« on: February 11, 2023, 06:44:54 PM »
Dear all,
My 2010 595 Competizione clutch pedals to the floor.
Fully aware of the time and size of the job involved.
Its at a garage awaiting collection by anoter that said theyd do the work, nothings happened.
That was over a week ago.
Does anyone know of a garage in the Buckie, Moray area od Scotland that can take on the work?
The car will need to be recovered.
The garage needs to be VAT registered.
I'll pay the bill in full, but the invoice needs to be made out to the company that i bought the car from in December (lucky me, 3 month/3000 mile warranty)
Pleas advise if you know anyone.
Thank You
Stay safe

Introductions / Merry Christmas
« on: December 22, 2022, 07:02:05 PM »
A very merry Christmas to one and all,
My Abarth is enroute!
2012 Competizione 160
Cant stand the wheels, they'll be one of the first things to go.
Just been refurbished and I'm told new tyres, they'll be up for sale
Not sure what the style is, standard fit from new, look like flowers/petals (5 holes with red dinner plates in the centre).
Anyone got fitted 17x8 et25 alloy wheels?
What issues with clearance, front and back?
Binding on full lock etc.
Rolling or flaring of the wheel arch?
Coilovers.........ah......coilovers
I'm leaning toward BC coilovers with DNA antiroll bars front and rear, negative camber bolts front, negative camber plates rear.
However, I've found HKS VIITS coilovers.....

Anyone heard of them?
Anyone with them fitted?
Ive got the antiroll bar kits on order with the usual Team Heko wind deflector kit.
Thats it for now, once here I'll get a few images on the group (I think the previous owner was a member).
Thanks in advance.
Dont forget dont drink and drive, I dealt with far too many when plod, both good and bad outcomes.
Nominate a drive or doss on someones sofa and dont forget you can still fail a breath test the morning after!
Stay Safe
Steve
