• Factory-fitted Dog Ring Gearbox, Carbon Kit and Track Kit

• One of a believed 487 Bispoto's built worldwide, 87 of which with the Dog Ring Gearbox
Conceived as the closest thing to a road-legal racing car in the Abarth range, the Biposto dispensed with the conventional 500's rear seats and much of its everyday equipment in favour of a more focused, lightweight two-seat configuration. Its 1.4 litre turbocharged T-Jet engine produces 190bhp, delivered through a five-speed manual gearbox, while an Akrapovic exhaust, Brembo brakes, bespoke suspension and 18-inch OZ Racing alloy wheels underline its considerable sporting intent. The result is a diminutive but seriously purposeful machine, developed with a clear emphasis on driver involvement rather than outright comfort.
What makes this example particularly special is its factory-fitted Carbon Kit, Track Kit and, most significantly, the highly desirable Dog Ring Gearbox Kit. Costing an extraordinary £8,500 when new, the latter replaces the conventional transmission with a competition-inspired dog-ring gearbox, complete with its exposed gear linkage and rapid, direct shift action. It is this remarkable transmission that gives the Biposto much of its unique character and sets suitably equipped examples apart. The Track Kit adds carbon-shell Sabelt seats, four-point harnesses and an AIM racing dashboard, while the Carbon Kit introduces further carbon-fibre detailing to the cabin and exterior. With these three options alone adding £15,900 to the original specification, this car would have cost £48,955 before any further options, against a starting on-the-road price of £33,055.
Preserved in exceptional condition and showing just 5,324 miles, it offers a rare combination of minimal mileage, highly desirable factory specification and genuine motorsport-inspired engineering. An increasingly collectible modern Abarth, this is a particularly compelling example of a model which dared to take the humble hot hatch to an entirely different level.Finished in the distinctive Matte Performance Grey, which became synonymous with the model, this exceptional Abarth 695 Biposto represents a particularly rare opportunity to acquire one of the most uncompromising performance cars of its generation.
