695 Abarth Competizione go kart fun

[Brewsters]

New to me, 6,200 miles only 1 owner Dec 2023 695 Abarth Competizione. Manual of course! 1st owner specced up full carbon backed seats, which are the Sabelts. I took it straight from the dealers to get new exhaust fitted. It had the up and over quad pipes (record Monza) as standard. Sounds pretty good now and the exhaust valves have gone for good. Looking forward to a few miles in her. Proper little hoot these things. Ditched my fairly new car as part exchange as I couldn't stand all the driver aids and interference etc....Will post a few more pics when I get the time later.

Lovely stuff! Great fun, always put a smile on your face.

All those that are bored with modern cars, get one of these.

Is it white or grey?

It's light grey with white mirror caps and white abarth side stripes, fairly subtle. I'll get a few pics up later this evening.

I had one a couple of years back. An absolute hoot.

Also with the carbon backed Sabelts.

Only thing was that I couldn't ever find a comfortable seating position. Just a shame that you couldn't adjust the steering wheel in or out.

Did look at getting a spacer kit for it but then your stalks are no longer in reach.

I part exed it for an Alpine A110.

Always smile when I see one though

Nice. I had a 595 Turismo a few years ago. Loved it, perfect for in the city with excursions out (except speed bumps felt like mountains). Unfortunately it got nicked from South London after 9 months and around 3k miles (and just as I had read about the security issue and was looking to beef it up), I was gutted. Turned up in Bulgaria 6 months later.

So yeah, enjoy but beef up the security..

What are potholes like in it?
