You have an awful lot of weight difference between the two , you would have to squeeze the nuts out of your masser but it could be done , thrashing my baby aint my style , prefer to get her moving gently and abuse her higher up the rev range , but those abarths do handle those corners so well

he started it and left me (i was in a seat diesel) but the sound and the way it went got me thinking.....

Yes Dem a great little car .... It has the passion that some great Italian marques are leaving behind.

 

[dem maser]

prefer it to the mito

 

[dem maser]

red, black, white they good in every colour

 

[GransportFan1]

they are great little motors, have a bit of exclusivity as well compared to the mini. they will be at 8K next year.

 

[dem maser]

wouldnt buy a mini, toooooo common, abarth or panda 100 for me

 

[GransportFan1]

looked at a Panda 100 for 1st car, bit pricey at the moment.
