![]() | Re: A500 Ordered today!! Hey Should be picking the car up early next week and time seems to have near stopped waiting for the call to pick the car up!! The car is in white with only the options stated, could have gone wild on the options list but sadly had a budget to work too! Still very excited as im seeing it as an even more fun version of the already loved Panda 100! I assume its been 2 years of problem free motoring ![]() Cheers

Thought I would write her a little note about the car and it ended up being 5 pages long ! I took a little licence and described the car as being half-an-abart. In mourning at the moment ![]()

Posts: 690 Thanks: 25 Trader Rating: 0 ![]() | Re: A500 Ordered today!! Hi DraigFlag87. When I checked the summary page on autotrader it states 2 years. Was this reduced from the 3 years that you got ? Is it the case that all 2009 Abarth models will be coming out of warranty in 2012 ? When I was working out the finances on importing an Abarth I thought that some individuals would be looking to upgrade to multi-air and a new warranty in 2012. I felt that the prices may be more within my reach given the uncertainty of the import taxes that would be due - it is estimated that it would be around €3k depending on the inspector. All imports into Ireland only have a maximum of 2 years warranty irregardlessly of them having more at the time of purchase.

Banned ![]() | Re: A500 Ordered today!! I guess you could have been confused by the SS warranty. Basically, the SS kit has a 2 year warranty. You must have the SS kit fitted within 1 year (or 12,000) miles from when the car is new. That's why i tell people to get it 1 year after buying the car, gives them a chance to save up but also means the warranty will expire with the rest of the car's warranty!
