Aye, some nice pics will be on the way!

Nice one, I hope you enjoy it. I really want to buy a new car but doesn't make financial sense at the moment despite some tempting offers.

Got me new motor and all I can say is wow!

It's only 1.5 years newer than my old Abarth but the difference is amazing! The first thing I've noticed is how much smoother the engine is. Then there's the tighter steering and then (!), there's the front suspension - no more creaking over speed bumps!

So far, I'm well chuffed! Photos to follow at the weekend!

Congratulations - jingle all the way

Congrats mate looking forward to the pictures....

awww i new 'baby'!! congrats and enjoy

Yep, I'm a proud dad.

...thanks guys!

Finally got round to taking a few piccys today... She's just standard issue (at the mo! ) but I love her to bits!

Mods I'm considering, after recommendations from the fine people on this forum ...

Angel Tuning ECU Remap
BMC CDA
EiBach Lowering Springs (& possibly shocks too)
Supersprint Exhaust
Engine Accent (Courtesy of Ben R! )

Yep, I know, I'm just following the lead of other people on here but it's good stuff and works!

Excellent Neil

Good choice of mods [I had better mention strutbrace as well, before bennyboy does ]

So, taking it easy in her?

Blast! Forgot about the strutbrace! Yeah... most of this list... actually, all of this list is Ben R's fault. Damn him!

She's only got 10k Tesco miles on her so I'm bedding her in slowly.

Lol, slowly, but not for long....

Blame Ben for everything, I do

I am now excited about the Brera GTA - a new thread in LTF

Very nice mate, I can't wait to see it in the flesh...I'll know what I'm looking for on Sunday now

Been following this beauty since the concept was revealed a few years back. Glad to see that it's pretty much unchanged - it's cracking!

Likewise... after seeing your car on here as Ben's guineapig! Reading KoArAnG's tribute to Ben R, are you now sporting some new rims?
