First day with an abarth 160

What a fabulous machine. Already done 115 miles in it and it is so comfy and quick. Really puts some of these bigger cruisers to shame and I'd go as far to say that it's as comfy as the zt to drive on the motorway. Very pleased with our purchase.

I do like the look of the Abarth version.

I thought this was a barth

Is the Abarth the sporty version of the Fiat 500 ?
