Looking good.

Enjoy .....

I love that colour, but blue cars have always been insanely unlucky for us (I know, I know, its all nonsense)

Not sure if you've still got warranty left but give it a good check over. We have warranty until April and have noticed a few things:

Exhaust valve stuck solid (not sure how my son didn't notice this one!)
Abarth Badges faded to pink
Condensation inside front lights.

Also, dont know of its been mentioned but there are a couple of drain baskets down around the sides of the hood. They have a sponge underneath. The baskets need cleaning out annually. Tricky to get to but worth checking they are clear.

Anyone found a stubby arial that works and isn't ridiculous money? Moss had the perfect one, ordered it and it went OOS so was given a refund. Can't find anything that works for under £40 now.
