When I picked the car up she was making a funny whirring sound , she had been stored for a while before I got her so I just thought it was something to do with being stood . After a while the noise stopped , then one day , as I was on my way to have my X pipe fitted , every thing locked up , I...

It has certainly ended on E-bay , again , not sure if it sold this time though . I know , the write up is really half arsed , I was really quite upset when I read it , she is a great car and in amazing condition , they are a main dealer though ( Fiat etc ) so maybe not that interested in the...

Hi Guys . This was indeed my car . I part X‘d her for a 124 Spider Abarth . The clutch is brand new , supplied and fitted by Marios at Autoshield . She also has an X pipe ( Marios again ) and modded back boxes (Jason Searle ) , she sounds fantastic , not offensive and no drone at motorway speeds...

This happened to me too , I pulled and cleaned the fuse and fuse contacts , never had any more problems , not with the seat anyway .

Mine did a similar thing , I reached under the dash and gave it a tap , seemed to solve it for a while .

Similar motor , yes , the 500 uses the T Jet , the Spider has the multiair , but the Spider is rear wheel drive with a ltd slip diff as standard .

This is the one near me . I love the look , I get the bit about the twisties and that it’s all about the handling , but what about when you want to get to the twisty bits or have had enough and just want to get home , have they got the guts on the straight bits .

Good to see an x tech for Maserati actually driving a Maserati , my mechanic friend was a Vauxhall tech and drove everything but a Vauxhall .

Yea , they do look a bit snug . I like the idea of them but I bet the price drops sharply after a few years , might be worth waiting a bit .

Has any one had a go in a Fiat 124 Spider , the Abarth version ? We saw one the other day and thought it looked rather cute , not sure if the guy driving it was trying but we easily slipped past and left him for dead .

Marios certainly knows his stuff :excellent:
