Looks decent.
For some reason I thought you stuck to autos, or was that temporary?

Have you ever driven one? Don’t know what the abarth is like but the normal 500 has a very strange driving position, legs comfortable but arms feeling very stretched to the steering wheel

Nope

Saw the ad and had to refresh my memory wrt S1600 & Mountune specs & differences. No need to be precious with that one because it's a CAT D, and the price leaves plenty from the budget for cookers and hoke.

Well I got Covid again so I've been ill for a fortnight! I'm struggling to decide, the Arbarths that were local have sold, I've seen a nice Z4 locally, I'm waiting for them to get back to me.
