A small FIAT / Abarth thread - post your pics here
Discussion
Lots of lovely readers cars on here but how about putting them all in one place?
I’ll start. After a long love affair with everything from a Mk1 Panda 4x4, a couple of Seicentos (including the Schumacher, the only car I’ve ever regretted losing, a brilliant 500 Twinair Plus, an Outstanding Panda Twinair Cross right up to my current Seicento Sporting Abarth & 595 Competizione, I’m a huge fan.
What have you got?
Cheers,
Simon

That’s Abarth only. Trying to be more inclusive.- Abarthisti tend to deny the FIAT aspect. I don’t understand that TBH!!
Here's my one 
Standard sporting with the electric webasto sunroof. Had it 8 years now and she is on 18k from new with just one little old lady owner before me ! It's been off the road now for a couple of years as I had no real use for it but couldn't bear to part with it. It's been to Le mans in 2014 and I got some funny looks whizzing down the autoroute with the roof back. Planning one getting it back on the road next year and giving it a overhaul and enjoy using it again.

Mine is the red one in this picture.
500S, it seemed like the logical replacement when my C-class needed replacing.
Can't find any pictures, but we previously had a Seicento Sporting (yellow, obviously) which we got for my wife to learn in - that was much more fun than it had any right to be...

Great little thread (pun intended). Had a few Seicento Sportings many moons ago and loved every single mile in them. A couple were standard, a couple of Abarth versions and a red Schumacher Edition which is the only one I have a photo off.
Favourite two was the pre facelift Abarth I had in grey with orange bumper/side flashes and the red Schumacher which I had at the same time as my first of many Caterhams (will try and dig out the picture later....)
Would love another Seicento Abarth or a nice Cinquecento Sporting.......maybe with a couple of subtle tweaks but still looking standard.
