    About time to.

    About time to. Not sure how quick the gt will be, as it is a big car to power with only 140 brake, but the abarth should fly.

    There bringing the 1.4 turbo back

    I agree though, it will be nippy but nothing compared to the mk1 due to the mk3 being so much bigger and heavier!

    The abarth shoul dbe a bit of an animal though!!

    i take it you kids appreciate that the car won't be the same as a gt
    it will be a engine with heavy emmisions control using multiple cat's also a gel suspended ecu that will have to be code cracked to map
    probably use a turbo with an internal wastegate so you can't bleed it

    it will be ****

    sad but true, its like my mums new KA, the dealer sad it has more power than the old one (which is true) but due to the emission standards its knocked back down to the same level, pathetic really
