So,

As you probably saw my current car is up for sale!

This is because I had put a deposit down on a Grey Biposto!

However, after some thinking and looking at the options for the new 595, I changed my mind and decided it was a lot more sensible to order the new model!

I had my order confirmed yesterday, and Im hoping I will take delivery late June or early July!

The spec is as follows;

595 Competizione 180BHP
Scorpion Black
Matte Black Stripes
Black SS Wheels
Performance Pack
Glass Sunroof
7" Satnav Unit
Beats Stereo Upgrade
CarPlay
Black Leather & Alcantara seats with grey stitch
Carbon Fibre Dash Board
Carbo Fibre Sabelt Seats
Carbon Fibre & Alcantara Steering Wheel
Black Brembo Calipers W/ Grey Writing
Carbon fibre wing mirrors

Its basically every box ticked!

The performance pack includes a limited slip differential, as well as the carbon fibre sabelts,  removal of the arial on the roof, and the black SS alloys.

Attached is a render of what my spec will look like!

If anyones got any questions about specs / prices / options available please ask as Ive got all the dealer information brouchers on the car as well as price list!

Hi All,

Firstly sorry for my absence from the forum this past week, Ive just started my graduate job which has been non stop, havent been at home at all this past week and havent had time to have a catch up on here!

Il get through all our new member posts as well as any other posts!

Regarding stickers, the supplier has vanished! So not having much luck with them at the moment, but I promise to get something sorted, please bare with me on that!

Wont be able to come to the ace cafe this Thursday as im staying in Birmingham, but Il deffinetely be at MITCAR, and our surrey to west wittering run!

Cheers guys!

So I went to see Ajay over at Thames Abarth this morning just for a chat as I was in the area.

I had been out for a test drive in an Audi S1, it was a good comfortable and fast car but the overall experience was crap! I was out maybe 15 minutes, no motorway drive and the salesman was really late.

I told Ajay about it, and he decided I needed to take the Biposto out for a blast, so thats exactly what I did!

He handed over the keys, brought the car out to the front and off we went!

It is such an amazing car to drive, it sounds amazing, handles really well and just goes like stink! We went on a really nice route, where I could really put my foot down - my god does it get up to 70-80 quickly! Very easy to lose your licence!

Once we got back, we spoke about what would be new for Abarth in 2016.

I can confirm there will be;

Abarth 124 Spyder
Abarth 4x4 with Alfa 4c Engine
New Abarth 500, with 595 or new equivalent (there will be 3 models as there are now)

This has come from Abarth direct to the dealers! Sorry anyone who has ordered a new comp 

After that we were discussing the MTA gearbox, and after about 5 minutes Ajay disappeared then came back with the keys to a 695 Maserati he had for sale, and told me to go off and try it out! I was gone for about 45 minutes, doing some motorway driving, fast country lanes and pottering around town. I wasnt a massive fan of it if im honest, it was okay in full manual mode but not as good as  good old fashioned gearstick!

And to top off an amazing day, he gave me an Abarth SS crate free of charge! Ive just put it together and it looks awesome! Im storing my winter wheels and some car cleaning stuff in it

All in all, it was an amazing day and just proves to me both Ajay and Thames Abarth love to look after their customers.

I urge anyone looking to purchase an Abarth to make the journey there, its definitely worth it!
