Very tidy ,now if you can keep the back end clean after driving, let us all know what you are using and you will make a small fortune lol.

Well I wish but I cannot work miracles. It's already dirty and only drove 70 miles

Haha thanks, I was meant to get the 85 but the dealers messed up the order then I heard about the British cycling discount so got this

I really do love this car. Had some fun in it again today. It handles quite good seen as running standard suspension

Yes the smile factor grows each time you drive ,the 105 hp engine is a gem

It really is isn't it! It will be a little bit better when I get rid of this free tank of cheap fuel and get some v power and it gets run in a little bit

I wonder why the torque is the same on the 105 as the 85? Would have though it would be more.

I thought it would have been as well. Either way it's so fun to drive!

What's the torque spec on the MM?

Yes a strange one but maybe in a year or so i will fit a tuning box for economy ,torque,and pleasure of course :tempt:

I was thinking the same, gives MM to sort out the issues with the tuning box that they are having. The dealer also recommended remapping the engine too! his words were, abarth performance, twin air tax. Albeit without suspension and brakes

I think it adds 40nm

Brakes are fine... The TA105 has vented discs up front and discs in place of the drums on the rear.
The TA85 is on solid discs up front and drums rear. Never had any prob with brake fade etc even when pushing it and repeated braking.
The Koni FSD / Eibach sportlines made a massive difference to handling and body roll. The Michelin Exalto and later the PS3's 195/50/15 also grip incredibly well.

I hope I can get some stuff sorted. It's on pcp which is an issue but I will get it sorted.


I fitted a led strip in the boot as it was very dark. What you think?

 

[rossul]
