Picked the 500 up today, here he is



First impressions are good, really well put together, good standard of materials inside, and great service from the local Fiat dealer.

The dualogic gearbox is a big step forwards from the previous selespeeds i have driven. Once its put into auto mode, it stays there, even when you turn off and restart. If you are in auto mode and want to drop down a gear it lets you do this whilst still remaining in auto mode.

There is plenty of space inside, I'm 6'2" and 16 stone, so not particularly small. No problems with headroom and no shortage of leg and shoulder space.

Economy should be good as well. I filled up the tank this evening (?36) and the trip computer came back with an estimated range of over 700km's !!

Anyway there will be a full report soon, once I grapple the keys back off the missus.
