500

It was suggested at work that we had company cars, I thought yeah cool, Brera, GT.....”I though we would get three Fiat 500's” mmmmmm.

They had two in the showroom, the choice wait a min’ of 12 weeks or have these one of these. One was a Met’ Black 1.4 sp’ red leather 16in wheels red callipers… not a difficult decision.

Its just starting to loosen up now, the engine revs freely, the 6sp box is excellent, sport mode is a must and with the asr off cornering is flat fast.

I know its heresy but its entertaining in a sud like way!

Re: 50o

Re: 500

I had one last week and really enjoyed it!

Seat was too high for me, but other than that a great little package!
