That indicates a winter tyre does it not?

Love it, you must be the same person that has posted up on either a forum or Facebook somewhere, no way there's 2 recently sold. I never knew about this model until I started researching the brand properly after a chance test drive. I always thought they were more style over substance until I had a go in a 595 Competizione in March this year, picking up my series 4 next month
Yes I posted on the Abarth forum but by some strange coincidence there is another for sale on the Abarth forum! I think the 18" wheels are perfect and thanks for the positive comments. I often get people at petrol stations asking what is it as they like it but look puzzled when I try to explain!! It's nice to drive something very unique.

Wow!!! Wish I'd have seen this before ordering my 595, love something a little different/special. Seems like a bargain for such a rare car(???)Yes it is a bargain but when you consider you can buy a standard Abarth punto evo same year for around 7-8k (some less) the addition 4k for the scorpione puts the rarity into perspective and like I said in my original post it's not exactly a exotic car with a 6 figure prices. It's still just a hot hatch. Maybe in a few years time when standard ones depreciate the scorpione may increase, who knows. For a lot of people it is an unknown make and has never been an obvious contender to other hot hatches but if you get the chance try one! I've had lots of hot hatches but this just feels special and plenty quick enough for everyday use. The Abarth 595 is also an amazing car. For anyone who has driven or owned an Abarth then it's our secret!
