The first kilometres & first modification

It has been 391 kilometres since the moment I bought the Fiat Barchetta, the kilometrage is at 165.995 km. I am beginning to get more and more familiar with the barchetta, and still deeply in love with her.

At this moment I can’t ever imagine selling the barchetta again. The driving experience and acceleration is amazing and I am still in love with the design.

Meanwhile, I am slowly starting to think more about what I’d like to do to the little boat in the future. For now, most of the things are ideas, dreams or something for the longer term, rather than actual plans.

But nonetheless, I went ahead and made the first change to the barchetta. It’s a small one, but in my opinion really does improve the way it looks. I replaced the rear logo, which was old and weathered and in my opinion simply didn’t fit with the rest of the design of the barchetta.

I decided to replace it with a new logo that uses the barchetta font that is also found on the glove compartment, which feels far more fitting to me.

-€30 for a new rear logo.
-€3830 spent on the Fiat Barchetta in total so far.
