Abarth 500


 

Spotted today outside the Trafford Centre, a bit of a toy Dream Car, the Abarth 500. This is obviously a beefed up Fiat 500, looking pretty good! Under the bonnet, a modest 1,4l turbocharged 4 cylinder engine with 135bhp. 0-62 takes the 500 7.9 seconds for a top speed of 128mph (205km/h). I know, it cannot compete with a Ferrari, an Aston or even an M3, but I think it is a nice looking, little sporty city car, produced by a make with a great racing history!
