    Default Fiat 500 launch

    I went to one last night....

    Our dealer (Autoworld) displayed a lovely white 100bhp version with subtle stripes, I really liked it!


    ...but out the back was an even better red version:


    (excuse the crappy cameraphone pics!)

    I got dragged down to the local garage again today. SWMBO has decided that now that I am doing more work, she needs a car. So armed with my best French we went to see when the dualogic cars would be available. Looks like they are starting producing them in 2 weeks and its about 2 months from order to delivery.
    Anyway, upshot is, looks like she is going to be getting a red 1.2 Lounge, with the ivory dash and dualogic semi-auto box.
    I took a 1.2 lounge out for a spin and it seemed a really well put together car, quite chuckable and with very direct steering. Only had 66km's on the clock so didn't rev it too hard The one thing that did strike me was that when you click on the city mode steering button, you would swear the wheel wasn't connected to anything.
