Love the Abarth but just as a warning, keep a close eye on the wheels. We have the same ones on ours and have had 1 replaced and are going to be getting a 2nd one done soon due to corrosion regardless of no curbing or tyre changes been done, car is a 16 plate but thankfully Fiat have been pretty good about it and not caused any fuss.
Its in reasonable condition.
31.5k miles
It is tidy but I had always planned on buying a one in decent condition to modify.
I have a lot of plans but not enough time haha!!
It has 12" minilites on at the moment.
Don't you get any ideasNice. May I ask how much you paid?![]()
Nice. May I ask how much you paid?![]()
Still a handsome car the E39.
Why is the model badge in the wrong position? Needs fixing!
just over £3kNice. May I ask how much you paid?![]()
AWD conversion with some type of Honda engine B18 or K20, do it do it do it doooo it!
Always wanted a classic mini, but being both 6 ft tall and wide, I don't think my dimensions would bold well with it.
Agreed, even in SE spec. Although I do see Sport models on the road and feel somewhat envious!
There's quite a bit of rust coming through and I need to sort out the headlight lenses but for £1,700 I've not done too badly.
Some GB plates, an oil and filter change and some fresh rubber are next on the list.

Would love to go AWD.
Im putting the B18 from the DC2 Integra type R into it.
Once the car is sorted properly I will look into AWD.
I know there is a company in the US that do a AWD rear subframe

One day I will own a Mini and go that route....One day maybe.
Today is that day!
Haha, it is the most fun car I have ever owned. It only has a 998 in it at the moment (it is SORN).
I have had fast cars and this makes me smile the most.
Nope, a Rover.Haha, I'm on Autotrader looking at Mini's now, Your's is an Austin right?
