280bhp Abarth 595 in-depth test: Can you have too much power?
This 280bhp Abarth is utterly deranged, and proof that you really can have too much power.
The standard Abarth 595 is not exactly the most polished of hot hatches, so what happens when you add an obscene 100bhp? Well, it becomes a raving maniac. This car has had £16,000 worth of modifications, which includes the following:
£1500 Turbo Technics S260 turbo
£1000 HRE exhaust manifold
£100 Bosch 390cc Injectors
£400 uprated coil packs
£400 ITG cold air intake
£800 Magneti Marelli Sinfonia exhaust
£450 TMC 200 cell cat/downpipe
£900 Quaife LSD
£500 Airtec intercooler
£1500 KW v3 coilovers
£900 CAE Ultra shifter
Hose Technik braided lines
Motul RBF600 racing brake fluid
£450 DNA Lightweight front suspension arms
£450 DNA Top suspension mounts
The result is, without a doubt, the silliest car I have ever driven.

Why I bought an Alfa Giulia Super: In-depth review
zhlédnutí 27KPřed 3 lety
Here's why, to me, my Alfa Giulia Super is simply driving perfection. After a 10-hour blast in the mountains, this car leaves your hands buzzing, your ears ringing with the snarl of an angry 4-pot and a huge grin plastered to your face. You just can't beat an Alfa 105 - especially one with a few choice tweaks and Alfaholics bits. Subscribe for more. My channel: czcams.com/users/AshrafonCars Fol...

    Thanks for the video, reminding me of how much I miss my 3Ps. I had 2 of them, 1st was a 1 owner from new S reg 1978 3P. It was a similar red colour. and I loved that car. I then bought a 127 Sport which was a dud, so sold that and bought another 3P but a T reg Berlinetta in blue with the Berlinetta stripes. That car was awesome, so much fun! It had a twin choke carb on it and pulled like a train, even causing my mate driving his Dad's work Cavalier 2.0i some embarassment that he could not drop me. Great cars and miss them both!

    When I was a G.I. stationed in Germany in the 70's I bought one of these new. I ordered the color I wanted (orange) and the total cost was $3600. I drove it all over Germany. I was constantly on the autobahn with it. It topped out at about 95mph. It was a great fun little car. It needed constant maintenance though. It went through 3 sets of brakes and 3 exhaust systems in 20,000 miles of use. The engine though was outstanding. Many happy memories of Germany with this car.

    that's a sport car so when people start talking about gas consumption it's plain ignorant, cause for a sports car mine did take 8,6-9,2L/100 and it consummes less than most SUV and sports cars so please stop thinking it's an economic car! Its a fun winter/daily drive with a good engine bay setup suspension set up and exhaust set up! its one of the best car ever! Taking care of it, is sure more tidious! But it's 100% worth it

    Superb review, your familiarity and enthusiasm about this car is wonderful. I'm 65 and had the identical car back in 1982 and found it more fun than any car I've ever owned, and thats 8 Mercedes, 6 Alfas and three Porsche's and a decrepid Opel GT. I hope you own your Alfa for your entire life and love it as much as your video so completely demonstrated.

    In Vancouver in 1968 I bought a new Super. Then installed 10 to 1 pistons, making for a relatively quick car on winding "B' roads. Nine years later it was so rusted it went to the wreckers.Then in 2006 bought a very nice 1971. Put in a strong 2 L, C/R gear box, LSD and the right suspension set up--it was outstanding. Sold it a few years ago when I turned 85. Sigh.
