General 695 Biposto

I think considering its a stripped out track racer, its kinda embarrassing that a similarly aged mini JCW costing about the same amount when new (but now considerable cheaper) can do 0-62 in 6 seconds with a back seat, radio, climate control and cruise control.
I can imagine that the JCW would go round a track blood fast as well, would certainly be comparable to the Biposto.

It’s embarassing to be honest. If i spend 30k+ on a Panda coupe I want it to pretty much fly!

Hi How are things with you. I dip into the Forum from time to time ars OH is still with the 500. I have moved from the Alfa to a Jag XE now for a change.

Things are good. Still got our 500, but it’s been off the road for a while due to the box pissing all it’s oil out. I’ve not got a 3 series touring that does silly mpg and I work in the automotive industry now.

Got to have a look at a Tesla Model 3 the other day, the quality was appalling, but it’s interesting nonetheless.

Like most 500’s though, Abarths included, it’s more about the packaging rather then the actual performance that sells them, people think they’re getting more then they actually are, 5.9 is comparatively slow alright but not sure I’d like to go any quicker in a Panda Coupe as you rightly called it, I’m sure they’re a lot of fun all the same
