was driving in Sorrento on holiday and spotted a Fiat 500 prototype on test!

only saw it for a few seconds so couldn't get a picture

thought it was cool and reassuring that they are carrying out real world reliability tests on the new engine

Cool, what did it sound like? Noisy?

durability testing takes a long time and often continues after release, any issues can be seen before normal owners

plus they still have to release the 100 bhp version
