I love how Shmee just buys whatever he wants. He just loves, appreciates the history behind it and then just buys it and actually put some miles on it. Well done Shmee, many years and counting.
I am convinced shmee has the most meaningful and unique collection of cars in all of youtube; you can tell every car has a story behind it for him 🇯🇲 love the content shmee big up
Tim this is wonderful for the channel. I'm an older aged subscriber and hypercar after hypercar can leave me cold. You're enthusiam for older, more modest vehicles keeps me coming back. Thank you for the wonderful journeys you provide.
Fun fact: there was another Abarth courtesy car edition based on the 695 Biposto, called the Rosso Oficine and painted in Rosso Corsa too. iirc only 99 exist.
@@Shmee150 i remember them as being Rosso Corsa but to be honest, looking back at the pics it does seem a bit darker. Maybe a mandela effect on my behalf then ;) and I do agree the 'regular' Abarth with the 430 Scud stripes was cooler visually and probably a better allround daily driver than a Biposto!
That’s funny. Someone hacked my account to bid on that car, I managed to get the team to lock my account. The bid was made at below £4000 so no effect on the outcome. Well done that great little car
I love the true burst of happiness wining the auction ! So natural, and feels almost intimate to be that close to you on this process ! Reminds me the first time you gave a look at that blue DBS on the Shmeuseum channel, we all knew you would need it ! 😂👍
Brought my wife for Christmas a 695 Tributo Ferrari...lol. carbon bits etc. engine remapped. Carbon fiber everywhere. Forged intercooler. Uprated pulleys. Forged actuator. Got it to 245 bhp from the 180 hp 1.4. she was made up. Went out Christmas morning in her pjs. I hid it in the garage and she thought it was a red truck V8 as the record Monza exhaust is mental 😂😂😂😂😂😂. Great video.
Bro, 70 mai saved me countless times. Asian friends recommended it to me and finally pulled the plug and it was well worth it that I installed it to my other car.
You went somewhere a while back which had one in their collection. There was more actual Ferraris, but one of these also and it was there when I learnt about the whole courtesy car thing. You explained what you said in the start of this video, but back then and it never left my mind.
I’ve had mercs, skylines, and currently own a mk5 supra - about a year ago I bought an abarth 595 comp to take to the Nurburgring for fear of ruining the supra and let me tell you the abarth has brought back my love of driving. Go kart !
Love it.....I like this channel because you're not just about top end cars but also interesting smaller cars. Don't know how you find the time to put all this on video but keep em coming ....great work.
we've all been there on those bloody countdown timers waiting to be outbid...my stress levels were through the roof! great to see Shmee doing something new and different...great little car by looks of it too
Perfect car to pick up. And what a special car for the price! Also glad that Ferrari red we all love is finally in your garage. It looks incredible with what you already have.
trying to catch up and watch every video released, nice to sit back and enjoy the show ! and the offer on dashcam, too good to not jump on it - highly appreciated ...let's get safer on the roads 🤗 😎
looks absolutely lovely! brings back great memories of my 2012 Fiat 500 Pop, finished in a similar shade of red. The previous owner put these same Scuderia Stripes on it, and I planned to get rid of them, but they grew on me and ended up becoming one of my favorite parts of the car. Not as sporty as an Abarth, but just as silly and fun to own.
Shmee even though he has high end cars and also has a eye on collectables to add to his collection. Amazing contence and the pink and red theme until the next upload, don't forget to warm up those tyres.. Be safe be well.
Shmee150 Great Video and Congratulations on winning that Awesome Fiat 500 Abarth 500 Ferrari Dealers Edition and I can't wait to see the restoration content and I can't wait to see which Ferrari is coming next
Almost two years ago I was in an accident on the 401 in Toronto. A semi changed lanes into me, turned me in front of it and pushed me a couple hundred meters sideways down the road. If it wasn't for my front and rear filming dashcam I would have been held at fault but video showed him coming into my lane.
This, the 1M and the Clio V6 should be kept as a set in your collection permanently. They all link back to base models you've owned in the past, which is awesome. You should definitely take all three to the Nurburgring.
Congrats Tim. Ever since you showed one I belive at Dare To Dream collection, I thought it would fit in well with the Ferraries your are getting. Well done and you needed that color.
loving these older generation cars in their tops specs being added to the collection, even if not daily drivers, they are the best in their class at the time...please add to you Ford collection...Fiesta, Escort and Sierra would be amazing to see in the Shmuseum.
Not a fan from a buyers perspective that the auction clock gets reset again after every bid made, one of the greatest auction feelings is when you wait for the clock to hit around 5 seconds and then put your max bid in and snipe all the other bidders. Obviously this is way way better for the seller but for me it takes away a lot for the fun for the bidders while also raising the price of sale for sure. As with anything it’s good for one and not so much for another.
Ah so the pink transit and red Fiat I saw parked at the Langrick station cafe the other day was indeed Shmee! 😆 should have gone with my gut and stopped lol
@@BrandonsAKKEMOSDAM very true! But it’s Lincolnshire lol 😂 I’d never expect him to ever come up this way and there’s a load of oddly coloured vans around that area lol 😂
You ‘can’ drive it for a pre booked MOT if it’s expired, BUT it’s at the discretion of a police/VOSA officer as to whether they allow you to proceed should they stop you en route… strictly/legally speaking if a MOT has expired, the vehicle should be trailered to the testing station. As a previous very early (2008) Fiat 500 owner, very much love the new purchase.❤

YES! Now we need to see a tour to the ring with the Abarth, Clio, 1M, and Focus RS and call it the pocket rocket tour 😂
I cannot wait to do that; honestly would be so much fun
Yes would be a lovely tour with all of those...
That would be epic, I think alot misses the old videos from the roadtrips with the gang
Yes Yes Yes
Altho focus rs i would say is a bit more serious and in a different league to the others for sure with 2.5x the power as the abseth
Shmee dancing!!! I have seen everything now😂😂
You really have!!
Reminded me of a young James May.
🤣
I love how Shmee just buys whatever he wants. He just loves, appreciates the history behind it and then just buys it and actually put some miles on it. Well done Shmee, many years and counting.

I appreciate that, what it's all about, a special story
Unless you count Jay Leno as a TH-camr 😊
Maybe a controversial thought, but I wouldn't count Jay Leno as a TH-camr. He's a Tele personality who makes TH-cam vids @@ryanfinley200
lol the elusive 'Shady Shmee' @9:45
Gotta watch out for that guy...
Mr Shmady 😂
Sam from seen through glass jelous af now 😂
I read this in shmees voice 🤣
My 124 finally has a friend!🤩🦂
Tim this is wonderful for the channel. I'm an older aged subscriber and hypercar after hypercar can leave me cold. You're enthusiam for older, more modest vehicles keeps me coming back. Thank you for the wonderful journeys you provide.
9:48 Seeing Shmee with his hood up reminds me of The AMG GT Black Series commercial 😂
Shmee the shady Transit robber was hilarious 😂
Fun fact: there was another Abarth courtesy car edition based on the 695 Biposto, called the Rosso Oficine and painted in Rosso Corsa too. iirc only 99 exist.
It's true, but it didn't have Ferrari badges and wasn't Rosso Corsa, so it never felt quite so special as the original manual one, for me at least
@@Shmee150 i remember them as being Rosso Corsa but to be honest, looking back at the pics it does seem a bit darker. Maybe a mandela effect on my behalf then ;) and I do agree the 'regular' Abarth with the 430 Scud stripes was cooler visually and probably a better allround daily driver than a Biposto!
4:40 is a side of you I'd never expected to see, but absolutely loved it! Congrats mate 🤗
Had to laugh so hard at „..now what happens next? - I have NO IDEA!!“ 😂😂😂
First time learning it!
the auction clip was hilarious, car looks wicked too, quite a collection of smaller more achievable cars now! awesome
Sorry for my excitement!
@@Shmee150 NEVER apologise for being excited Tim!
@@Shmee150 don’t be sorry! we all love it haha (hence being a subscriber for years)
That’s funny. Someone hacked my account to bid on that car, I managed to get the team to lock my account. The bid was made at below £4000 so no effect on the outcome. Well done that great little car
Oh wow, that's quite bizarre
@@Shmee150yea “quite bizarre“🤔🧐🧐
Brad is quietly over the moon with another Abarth in the collection, let alone another one with a Record Exhaust 🤣
Doesn't this mean that you also got to have a Scuderia in the same spec to match? ;-)
I like your thinking...
@@Shmee150 Would have very “Don’t talk to me or my son ever again” vibes.. Very much here for it, if it happens..
I love the true burst of happiness wining the auction ! So natural, and feels almost intimate to be that close to you on this process ! Reminds me the first time you gave a look at that blue DBS on the Shmeuseum channel, we all knew you would need it ! 😂👍
You must take it to the Nurburgring for some laps along with the new fxx
I actually need to take a number of my manual fun cars to the Ring; Clio V6, BMW 1M, and the Abarth
Give it the Panda 4×4 AWD system

That's awesome, nice one!
That James May dance was epic! 😂 Congratulations, Tim!! Im 🎉
Haha, excitement got the better of me
@Shmee150 That just makes the reaction to winning the car all the more real! Can't wait to see what you do with it!
This is too cool! I started watching your channel when you had the R8 and the little Abarth. I’m looking forward to the videos with this new one!
No way, thanks for still watching so long later
lmfao, that thumbnail is hilarioose. 😂
Fits the car well doesn't it!
@@Shmee150 Couldn't agree more, Shmee. Not only are your videos amazing, your thumbnails are absolutely hilarious.
Uh... No it isn't.
@@Shmee150 😉

Correct! I loved it there, that was at Global Car Collection
This fealt more like a dashcam advert with a new car, than a new car with a dashcam advert.
4:27 😂 just the joy in his face
I love small hatches, it really looks good and the colab really makes this car very special.
im obsessed with these little pocket rockets, and my love for ferrari is everlasting. love your vids like always tim!
This should be a permanent part of the collection.
Need to get the Ferrari shields on the wings
I have been leaning that way, would be a nice shout
Abarth 595 Tributo Ferrari has them
I have never seen you that happy, and that was with a 16-thousand-pound car! That little dance was awesome to see, haha!
I’ve had mercs, skylines, and currently own a mk5 supra - about a year ago I bought an abarth 595 comp to take to the Nurburgring for fear of ruining the supra and let me tell you the abarth has brought back my love of driving. Go kart !
Been using a 70mai for about 3 years now really reliable dashcam good footage too. 👌
Love it.....I like this channel because you're not just about top end cars but also interesting smaller cars. Don't know how you find the time to put all this on video but keep em coming ....great work.
we've all been there on those bloody countdown timers waiting to be outbid...my stress levels were through the roof! great to see Shmee doing something new and different...great little car by looks of it too
I love that he has a miniature version of every car he's owned, he'll never forget any of them
Love seeing the excitement when you won the Abarth! It's one of my dreamcars to have too! Yet to find one! Congrats, Tim! 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Perfect car to pick up. And what a special car for the price! Also glad that Ferrari red we all love is finally in your garage. It looks incredible with what you already have.
Seeing Tim dance is the best thing ever 😂
20 secs! 9:31 LOL shmee had to stand in the crator 🤣🤣🤣
“Now I’ve read through all the terms and conditions before” I can bullshit on that one Shmee😂 No one ever reads that.
Shmee is the type of guy to actually read the terms and conditions,
Alex kowaliuk here , most exciting episode in a long time. Cheers Mr Tim
Brilliant little cars ive had two of them and watching this makes me want another in the future
LOL did I just watched a 30 minute dashcam add? Congrats Tim, the abarth looks great!!!
trying to catch up and watch every video released, nice to sit back and enjoy the show !
and the offer on dashcam, too good to not jump on it - highly appreciated ...let's get safer on the roads 🤗 😎
amazing new addition to the garage Tim congratulations I hope you enjoy it
looks absolutely lovely! brings back great memories of my 2012 Fiat 500 Pop, finished in a similar shade of red. The previous owner put these same Scuderia Stripes on it, and I planned to get rid of them, but they grew on me and ended up becoming one of my favorite parts of the car. Not as sporty as an Abarth, but just as silly and fun to own.
As a Ferrari fan and a St150 driver I have alot of love for this.
That is a great addition. Definitely needs to be on a trip to Italy to pickup a new Ferrari.
Thug shmee on the dashcam explanation is everything I needed in life
Shmee in the hoodie acting like a car thief though...HAHAHAH
I have always loved these little rockets but this is slightly more special being connected with Ferrari.
That colour ❤️😍
That's pretty cool dude. I like this addition the the garage more than a few of your 6 figure cars
Shmee even though he has high end cars and also has a eye on collectables to add to his collection. Amazing contence and the pink and red theme until the next upload, don't forget to warm up those tyres.. Be safe be well.
If you do end up needing to respray it, it would be cool to find someone who can paint the stripes.
Absolutely love the purchase, cant wait to see everything you do with it!
Eagerly waiting to see the SF90 XX at the shmuseum!
I can't wait! It should be here before the end of the year I think
A very cool move with the Abarth. Kudos!
Cannot wait to see what you weave your magic on this little gem..only today I was looking at getting an Abarth and this has helped make my mind up 😊
Hope you enjoy yours 😉
Love it, what a beauty. Quirky and rare, with a great story.
Shmee150 Great Video and Congratulations on winning that Awesome Fiat 500 Abarth 500 Ferrari Dealers Edition and I can't wait to see the restoration content and I can't wait to see which Ferrari is coming next
Awesome little car! I have a 2013 500. I would love to pull into my Fiat dealer in Scottsdale with your new car. They would be blown away!
9:44 what you see when checking your cameras at 3am when you own a F50
Did Tim mention anything about a dash cam? 😂
Almost two years ago I was in an accident on the 401 in Toronto. A semi changed lanes into me, turned me in front of it and pushed me a couple hundred meters sideways down the road. If it wasn't for my front and rear filming dashcam I would have been held at fault but video showed him coming into my lane.
So the cars gone full circle.
Originally sold by Dick Lovett Ferrari Swindon.
Now sold by Edward Lovett on his collecting cars auction site.
This, the 1M and the Clio V6 should be kept as a set in your collection permanently. They all link back to base models you've owned in the past, which is awesome.
You should definitely take all three to the Nurburgring.
It would be great to do that at some point with them together
A nice little addition to the garage, can’t wait to see what you do with it
I always wonder how much a company needs to pay for these adverts. To make Tim act like a thief it needs to be at least 10k right?😂
Congrats Tim. Ever since you showed one I belive at Dare
To Dream collection, I thought it would fit in well with the Ferraries your are getting. Well done and you needed that color.
4:43 nice wiggly wiggly dance 🕺🤼
loving these older generation cars in their tops specs being added to the collection, even if not daily drivers, they are the best in their class at the time...please add to you Ford collection...Fiesta, Escort and Sierra would be amazing to see in the Shmuseum.
Gorgeous car, love these Abarths! Funny to see it's got the exact same key as my Alfa Giulietta 🤌
The auction scene was very exciting and dramatic nice video Tim.
Amazing addition. 200 is a very cool number obviously being the last one but i think 150 would’ve also fit perfectly 😉
Hehehehe @shmee face at the auction with anticipation is epic. Loving it. Great small car

As with anything it’s good for one and not so much for another.
9:53 we need more crack head Shmee
nothing greater than the winning a bidding war for a "ferrari" dance
Love the Abarth FDE! I had one in Thailand identical to this. Yours is number 200. Mine was 193. My Malaysian friend had 191.
So funny seeing how small the towing place is compared to American towing is. It’s cute! lol.
Great fresh content. Thank you Tim.
Great Tim!!!!!!!! Let's take it to the Nurbugring tomorrow....!!!!!!! :)
What a cool car. You aren’t afraid of quirky which is awesome and very Doug Demuro of you.
A stone chip (bullseye) like that can be filled easily, especially where it's located out of the driver's eye line
Please put scuderia shields on the fenders!!!!
Oh no, please don't!
can’t quite believe i’ve been watching since you had the first abarth, I remember you debating if you want to change the wheels. Great new addition!
No way! Thank you so much
OEM as possible is the way to go I think. Like the idea of keeping the windshield stickers etc.
Ah so the pink transit and red Fiat I saw parked at the Langrick station cafe the other day was indeed Shmee! 😆 should have gone with my gut and stopped lol
I mean how many other hot pink Trasnit’s driving around the country lol. If I’m in the UK and see one I will def be looking for Shmee.
@@BrandonsAKKEMOSDAM very true! But it’s Lincolnshire lol 😂 I’d never expect him to ever come up this way and there’s a load of oddly coloured vans around that area lol 😂
Great car, I absolutely love Abarths, fun, quirky and such a laugh to drive.
They sure are

what a load of shit. strictly speaking you can drive it to that station.
One of your best videos!! Thanks Tim
Shmee boogieing down, he actually does know how to have fun.
Yes yes yes shmee150!!! Amazing to see an abarth on your channel!!!! One very happy Abarth 595 competizione owner here welcome back to the dark side
Im all the way across the pond plotting on when and how to send an offer for it already 😅... Amazing and rare find ... congratulations 🎉
Every car collector must have an Abarth in their garage ❤
This would look perfect alonside the sf90xx and maybe another special series ferrari....do it tim👀😂
It's happening!
Awesome...congrats..5 speed manual as well...love the car...enjoy it.
