Abarth 595 Hatchback Turismo 1.4 Tjet 165hp 3d Owner Review

In their own words
Cliché time! 'It puts a smile on my face every time I drive it' The Abarth exudes a real sense of theatre and feels so much quicker than it actually is - so that I can enjoy my driving without losing my licence. Bad points, yes, there are quite a few. The steering lock is appalling for such a small car, and the seating position is severely compromised, though you do get used to it after a while. The tyres have been changed to Pirelli for the series 4 and wet grip is only just adequate. Biggest gripe for me is lack of space for my clutch foot. That said, and even tho the design is 'Retro' it is a marvel of packaging and I have never found myself regretting buying such an affable small car after downgrading from my BMW.
How reliable do you find the car?
Reliability was a concern of mine when I bought my Abarth, being old enough to remember Fiat group cars of yesteryear, but I am happy to report the car has performed without fault.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
Fun with a capital 'F' however, it's far short of perfect.About their car
