Think I might buy it as a run around, after putting my one into retirement this looks too good to be true. Are you sure the price is correct and not a mistype ? £16k rather than £6k ?
I am so glad I am putting my one into retirement, I couldn't afford to sell her based on these prices !
Sorry Ron, still researching the Abarth's , I will be in touch shortly with some options.
Regards
Mark
