History

Supplied new by Glyn Hopkin in London & registered new on the 15th of February 2016.
The car remained with the original owner who absolutely cherished this example until June 2022 due to illness when the car was passed into the ownership of the owners daughter.

With the car is a superb history file, with all original booklets, original order form, service & MOT records, all brochures, certificate of authenticity, Abarth catalogue print outs, plus of course all receipts for various Abarth upgrade/dress up parts. All original parts are still with the car, as is a fitted custom made indoor cover with the logo & the #117.

Whilst it is usual for super low mileage cars to have little service history, this example has a lovely service history with the supplying dealer.

Service history as follows:

PDI:
6 miles – 2016
606 – 17
1,110 – 18
1,403 – 19
1,497 – 20

MOT History:
1,112 miles – 2018
1,403 – 19
1,497 – 20
1,584 – 22

Since 2020 the car has had very little usage due to health of the owner, the car will have a service carried out upon sale & this can either be carried out by ourselves in our workshop facility (using genuine parts) or with our local main dealer.

Body & Paintwork

Only available in exclusive ‘Modena Yellow’ with ‘Tar Cold Grey’ trims.
The Record Edition also came equipped with a carbon fibre diffuser at the rear, carbon fibre lower spoiler at the front & carbon fibre inserts within the side skirts.

The carbon fibre, mixed with the yellow paintwork, grey trims, the lightweight 18″ O.Z alloy wheels & the titanium Akrapovic exhaust all makes for a great combination, really letting people know from the outset, that this is no ordinary Abarth.

This example sports entirely original paintwork, as of course you would fully expect.
The car is in absolutely beautiful condition & that includes the carbon fibre trims, the enamelled ‘695 Record’ badges, all glass, trims & wheels – The car looks absolutely stunning.

Externally the only upgrade is the addition of, Abarth carbon mirror covers, Titanium Abarth wheel bolts, Titanium Abarth fuel filler cap & fixings, & the MS Racing series 4 tail lamps which look superb. (all original parts with the car & in ‘like new’ condition).

Interior & Trim

The interior of this car, much like the rest of the car, is in fantastic condition throughout.

Being the Record Edition, this car comes equipped with carbon fibre backed, leather & alcantara Sabelt seats which look absolutely stunning & are of course unmarked.
No rear seats are fitted to this model, instead they have a titanium 3 bar ‘roll cage’ with cargo net which looks fantastic.

The aluminium pedals & footwell protectors are all in superb condition, as is the leather steering wheel & the lightweight internal door panels.
Limited edition number plaque is positioned in the centre console, stating number 117 of just 133 examples.

A few upgrades have been carried out to the interior, using genuine Abarth parts, all purchased brand new with receipts.
These include: Maserati Edition matt carbon dash inlays, Abarth aluminium gear knob, Abarth carbon sill protectors, Abarth Biposto mesh air vents, Abarth Biposto Sabelt 4 point harnesses & Sabelt fire extinguisher. All original parts still with the car.

Engine

The 1.4L turbo charged T Jet engine.

190bhp in a hot hatch weighing only 997kg (unladen) makes for a fantastic little pocket rocket!

Mix that in with a reduction in unsprung weight over a standard Abarth, using lightweight O.Z alloy wheels, along with Brembo 4 piston calipers, & two piece floating discs, plus then add a mechanical limited slip differential, remote reservoir Extreme Shox coilover suspension & you have a go kart that is not to be underestimated on track or indeed on a twisty road!
0-62 mph in a claimed 5.9 seconds & a claimed 143mph top speed mean it must also not be underestimated in a straight line either, all whilst listening to the addictive intake noise through the BMC intake & the fantastic exhaust note through the valved Akrapovic exhaust.

The engine bay presents very well as it should do, still displaying the original carbon fibre cover, BMC intake Abarth oil cap. In addition to that, the car has received an Abarth titanium coolant cap, MS Racing bonnet struts, plus various custom made titanium bolts/fasteners. Again the original parts are still with the vehicle also.

Running Gear

Having been a ‘garage queen’ & the owners absolute pride & joy, the underside looks superb, with original labels even still in place.

The car drives exactly as it should do, brakes are great, gearbox feels fantastic & the mechanical diff operates very well.
