Hi dem it's 2.2 JTS. It's ok would have preferred the V6 though.

 

[GransportFan1]

2.2 is a good engine, 3.2 is too heavy at the nose.

Had a ride in Chris's 3.2 Spider.......WHAT HAVE THEY DONE TO THAT ENGINE...My GTV is a far better engine.....Just doesn't inspire at all......Stick with the lighter 2.2 I say.

 

[Artejano]

Thank guy's. Having not driven the 3.2 I can't really make a judgment but I do like the 2.2 and probably more than enough for my needs as the wife will be driving it as well. She never drove the masser she was always to scared of it's power. The only problem I have now is my daughter is iching to get behind the wheel. I can see that between my wife and my daughter I won't get much of a look in. I'll have to steal my daughter 500 abarth........that'll teach her..he! he!

 

[Andyk]

Will say it was the same with the 155..the 2l Twin Spark was a much better balanced car than the V6..

500 Abarth, would love a go in one of those, has she just got that Reno as i think i remember you saying she wanted one.

Yea Adam, she couldn't resist it, what's more she is saving up for the ESSESS conversion. I think she's more of a petrol head than me. She wants to come to one of the meets or an Autoitalia day in her Abarth.

 

[GransportFan1]

bit of a petrol head to say the least then, cant you buy the Essesse kit separately.

 

[Artejano]

Yes, it costs about 2.5k I think you get new ECU and mapped putting it up to 160-bhp, high performance air filter, bigger alloys same as the ones in my avatar with tyres, stiffer suspension kit I think, up rated brakes, I'm not sure but some other stuff as well, maybe new sports exhaust? I'll have to look into it before she spends her money.

 

[GransportFan1]

i bet it is such a fun car to drive, would like a go in one. Great car to buyas your first hot hatch.

 

[dem maser]

love the 500......with enough money id love to have that as an everyday car..........

 

[GransportFan1]

bet you can get one for about 10k now Dem, maybe even less.

 

[dem maser]

the cheapest is 10k...still a lot of money.........
