Hi im am new to this forum and have had fun reading all the posts regarding The Stilo Abarth.
However I am now in the situation where I really love the car but cant decide wether or not it will be a good move to take the plunge and buy one!
I have not yet had a test drive of either the selespeed or the manual but have had a drive in the 1.9 jtd which was a nice drive and seemed fast compared to my 1.2 punto but sounded like a tank!
Jst a few questions that I could do with clearing up!
When i browse the forum alot of the complaints that I keep reading our from like 4 yrs ago when they 1st came out. Am i right in thinking that if i was to buy a abarth now most of these problems should have been sorted by now? or am i being naive and should still expect these problems?
I am still undecided about wether to get the manual or selespeed? I like the thought of the selespeed but I am abit concerned about how quick the gearbox will change gears? is it slower than a manual between gears?
I have read a few bad reviews of the selepseed gearbox is this jsut simply because the reviwers didnt get chance to learn to use it properly?
I really love the style and features this car has and they are so cheep to buy now you get an awful lot of car for ur money! Think i just need to here from some satisfied customers rather than keep hearing these horror stories!
Any repsonce will be much appreciated
