      Finally arrived yesterday, not driven it much but so far very happy. Looks good inside & out, not sure what the person who said the seats looks tatty & cheap was on about. Must be very fussy

    On the contrary, I speak from experience.

    I owned a remapped 1.9 Grande Punto with 190 bhp and shedloads of torque. In a straight line that was probably quicker than the Black. In corners a totally different proposition, the GP was much heavier. The 1.4 turbo petrol Abarth is also a much heavier car.

    Fiat are also well known for "overstating" performance. Something that was often discussed in Fiat Forums. The Black and Red editions on the other hand are very light, nimble and handle many times better, I suspect the performance figures are also understated.
