New member, getting my 500 M-Jet Pop soon

Hi you all,

I am a former VW Golf TSI GT driver downsizing to save the planet ... oh well, not really

I was in the market for a small efficient daily driver, and I really could not think of any better than the brilliant little 500.

Almost no wait either, selected the car in the shop this saturday, and taking delivery thursday.

Fiat 500 1.3 M-Jet Pop
- Glass roof
- Split rear-backrest
- Chrome pack
- Blue & Me
- ESP
- Automatic climate
- 16" Alloys
- Autodimming mirror (does it also has rainsensing wipers?)
- Rubstrip w/500-logo
- Heated seats
- Tinted rear windows

To add to that, the car will get a paint-seal threatment, probably a good idea on a scratch-unfriendly color like this flat blue.

Couple of pictures from the ad





I really cannot wait, these next few had better fly ...

Yes, the buttons are sitting next to the handbrake lever-base, on each respective side.

That's a nice looking 500. Are those Alfa Romeos in the background in the showroom? I notice the cars are left hand drive, what country are you posting from? I bet you're really looking forward to Thursday.

I can't remember seeing heated seats as an option on the Fiat configurator. Perhaps it's not an option for the UK. I wouldn't have minded them myself.

I'm not sure if I would have specced them but like you I don't think the're available in the UK, unless anyone knows different.

They are standard in the nordic countries, I think they fit them here, cause the button looks very aftermarket.

Re: New member, getting my 500 M-Jet Pop soon

I like this colour. Is there A/C; looks like it? Fine car.

Is the white 500 really white by the way? I think I keep seeing a white one, but it looks cream - is it me or what?

There are two whites, one flat, and one metallic, the latter one does not look completely white under any light.

Oh, and the one standing behind mine is not white, it's actually light blue.
