So after looking for my car, by my car I mean something I can feel that’s just build for me ( currently driving a 5.5 Passat V6. Thing is nice and all but having worked for the local Alfa, Maserati and Abarth dealer and owned alot of Alfas ( for my age ) I just don’t feel it. It’s cold heavy, and totally uninspired. It’s very comfy even with lowered springs but eh not that big of a deal.
Anyways after remembering how I loved the back then new 595 with 180hp that was a demo car of ours I loved the Abarth, and for the past couple of months I have searched for all kinds of cars but nothing seems to ring a bell. Except an Abarth 500. Problem is they are expensive except the first editions from 2008 to 2012. Those I can get fro about 10-11 000 euros and seem good. Now I know they are slower but nothing a remap can’t fix.
I want to ask are there any specific stuff I need to look about for in them and are prices right ? I mean a model of 2013 onwards costs like 13000 and upwards which is kinda out of my league. Guess an alternative might be a Grande Punto Abarth but those are extremely rare here.
Any tips would be good. How are they in terms of reliability, parts availability and general problems.
