    Glad your keeping the Abarth, plus I think as you have k-tec on your side it produces some good content for your channel. I don't use my Abarth 124 a lot but when I do get in it I get a proper buzz as it feels great. Plus going to Abarth group shows and convoys are just so much fun.

      Yeah, sometimes having a car which you don’t use much, means a lot when you do use it, it’s a nice treat and obviously Abarth meets and convoys are great!

    I've owned my 68 reg abarth 595 trofeo (blue also with red details) now approx 2 1/4 years and it would be lucky if it's done 1500 miles in that time. (It's only done 9350 miles from new) Some months I never use it at all but it's wierd I then have thoughts like you and I want to sell it but then I drive it and I then decide i don't want to
    So just because you haven't used it don't think it's time to sell as inevitably when you do you'll wish you hadn't

      Yeah I just see it sitting there and think I’d rather have the money, then I drive it and I don’t want it to go, plus, if I got rid, I’d probably want another one anyways!
      Yours sounds a nice Abarth, colour combo sounds cool also.

    Noooo! You can't sell the Abarth! I think you'd regret it, you're well into the Abarth scene and you're getting known for them again, definitely keep it.
    I get bored quickly with cars too, but I usually think to myself - would I want to buy this car at the money I'd be able to sell it for? If the answer is yes, then it should be kept for longer.

    Assuming its on finance of some sort, you are going to lose thousands paying the balance off because you paid retail money for something you are going to sell at trade or private money.
    It was always highly risky having an expensive car when you get bored with cars as quickly as you do.
    If you do sell, keep to the cheapies.

    Oh amber please don't base your cars you own on just views numbers on the channel , there's so much more to it than that! You love the brand and the bad Abarth meets along with your own driven24/7, the money on the proton you should have put into the Abarth be it paying a chunk off or further mods.
    K-tec will be able to help you transform this car massively if you stick with it I'm sure.
