Surreal seeing my car on the channel, traded it in with Matt for Abarth 595 70th Anniversary(i can get my golf clubs in it😅).Great video Matt👍

As an Abarth 595 owner I am glad you got one and didn't do the usual youtuber "hate this" without quantifying it.

In 2009 I bought one of the very first Abarths a 500 esseesse. After a Porsche 911 - the Abarth was much more fun (and more reliable!). I had a short shift gear change from Selspeed fitted and I can recommend this upgrade, you get a much faster and neater gear change. I have owned many different cars and can honestly say 'these are great little cars' 👍

I love these, worked for Fiat/ Abarth a few years back. Nerd fact. All the cars come as 595 and when you want uprated versions, they have exhaust, suspension, brakes remaps metal pedals fitted at the dealer. Very nice little jobs, some have 220/250bhp they are bonkers!

When my wife noticed you were smiling I explained it was because you’re driving a cute fun car - she thinks it’s because you have met someone ! Great video as always

[prjackson]

Great video. I have a Abarth 500 (62) plate with 190K miles. Still going strong. Great car

This is proof Matt does secretly know what he’s doing. Winter is a great time to buy a convertible, and Spring is a good time to sell a convertible, so when (if) Spring hits, it should be decent profit.
What is it with Automotive YouTubers and Abarth 595’s at the moment? This is the third video on one recently!

[originalchill]

No overspend, no new mats, no mechanical issues and no fluid changes! That’s all well and good Matt but no number plate change 😮 I’ll have to go and lay down for a while 😂 New year new profit margins 🤞🏻😀

Fantastic to finally see you in an abarth 595 at last matt, I've owned one for 3 years and done many mods to it including wheels, suspension, exhaust, re map and carbon fiber body parts. Ok it's only a 1.4 litre but it's such fun to drive and always excites getting behind the wheel. Although made in poland mine is my small red italian sports car. I love my abarth 595.

I recently hired a Fiat 500, not the Abarth model, & even with the 998cc engine, it was still a lot of fun to drive! The manual gearbox was great to use & I loved the fact the car came with a mechanical handbrake.
Storage space in the boot was bigger than the model featured in the video, so I think it's a great little car! 👍👍

[chrizy]

I am not a Fiat fan after many bad experiences selling them over the years, however, I love these little 500 Abarths! They are like little go carts and are as close as we come to a modern-day 205 Gti. Watching your video, I found it very funny that straight after you got flashed with the 'SLOW DOWN' sign an advert came on YouTube for Injury Lawyers for You! 😂😂😂😂 Love it.

[peterthwaites]

Great video Matt... I own an Abarth 595 Scorpioneoro and although i know you`ve often said you`re not a hot hatch fan i always thought if you had the chance you`d enjoy driving an Abarth 595... You could not hide that grin! aside from that these cars are quite well built and providing you service them regularly using the correct oil the motors will do big miles, i love them..

[josephgittos]

Why do people insist on putting some cheap tyres on a newish car, even if it was an old car I wouldn't put cheap tyres on.

[PaddyThomson]

My Dad had one as a courtesy car about 8 years ever since then I’ve had a fascination over them. They seem so much fun to have. Always called them a modded hairdryer with the way they sound.

[wolfgangezeh]

Pocket Rocket! As always, exquisite and witty presentation. Cheers Matt and happy New Year!

[geetee]

The Abarth 595 is a superb choice Matt, it needs the Essesse kit to give it a bit more Umph 👍

[bradwarren]

Nice little “Abart”… think that’s a base 595 145bhp. But it has an upgraded 7” infotainment and those are Turismo spec wheels. So really good spec. Must be driven in sport mode for max smiles per hour 😊 (had two of them and still an enthusiast).

[md-detailing]

The smile on Matts face says it all!

Cute little car and a nippy one!

Really pops in Red!

Great video and work as always Matt! :D

[samwilde]

Such fun little cars, the abarth feels like it’s more than it is. I mapped mine and it was hilarious.

[richryan]

Nice going! I’d been curious about Abarth, so I enjoyed this, thank you. I think this rather top outcome insures you against the inevitable mid year Range Rover spasm!
