Abarth 124 spider Taking up its position next to the 695 Rivale will be the Abarth 124 spider – marking the return of the iconic and revered 'spider' badge – the natural heir to the original launched in 1972. This two-seater roadster embodies everything for which the Abarth marque is famed – performance, styling and advanced equipment – with each wearing its own metal plaque etched with a unique number to underline its exclusivity. Sporting a powerful 1.4-litre 170hp engine, the 124 spider is a real driver's car, with the snug low seating position making you feel at one with the road, and at one with the car. Thrilling performance is ensured with a top speed of 142mph, with optimum weight distribution and racing suspension bringing precise and agile handling. To feed the senses further the Record Monza exhaust as standard delivers the all-important signature Abarth sound. Developed with the Abarth Racing team, styling is unmistakably Italian, with the trademark matt black bonnet a reference to the classic Abarth 124 Rally, which sported a matt finish to prevent the driver being dazzled by the sun. Available in two pastel and three metallic colours, each name pays homage to one of Abarth's prestigious rally wins – for example the San Marino 1972 Black. Equally at home on urban roads as well as race tracks, the new Abarth 124 spider is attracting a new generation of enthusiasts with its performance, technology, comfort and ease of driving. The car combines the authentic roadster experience with thrills, technology, safety and unmistakable Italian design. Inside the 124 spider, the Abarth DNA is confirmed with an absolute focus on perfect ergonomics, with leather seats designed to be both comfortable and in the optimum driving position – low and retracted to perceive side movements. The controls are perfectly in line with the sporty set-up of the car, with the position of the aluminium pedal board, vertical steering wheel and short gear stick ensuring a fully-engaged driving experience. Both cars are available now from Abarth's network of UK dealers. For further information and to find your nearest dealer, please visit www.abarthcars.co.uk.
