Hi all,
I too have ordered a 500S, in Footloose Blue, Front Fogs and Black Leather Int. Also having Abarth 500 Scuderia stripes in grey fitted once taken delivery.
Ordered it on the 26/07/13 (i think), and was quoted 3 months.
Haven't heard anything from the dealership as of yet.
How long did it take for the dealerships to get in contact with you?
Even if it was just a courtesty call?
Pateince wearing thin......
I shall call them tomorrow.
Machines get holidays?
What's the world coming too!
What colour are you getting?
Another thing that is plaguing me, is that I've heard not the best things about the dealership, just from browsing on here :/
Have you seen what it looks like?
I'm yet to see a blue one, I've seen the vast array of blues on other continents, but not the infamous Footloose Blue.
When's yours due?
Mine is due 02/09. If I'm lucky the week before!
Never seen any blue around, that's why I went for this colour. I have seen few in Italy though as I'm Italian and often visit my family.
One thing about dealers.. I found them much more professional here in the UK. I went my mum to an Italian dealer as she is considering buying a new 500. I wanted to scream murder!!! New cars presented with dead Mosquitos on seats and spider webs all around the alloys... Service=0!!! The guy couldn't even give us indications of prices... Unbelievable!!! Mind you, my mum previously had a 500 Abarth in navy blue, panda, UNO and Punto. Very loyal Fiat client.
I sent a big complaint through to Fiat in Italy and guess what? Didn't even get a reply...
Forgot to ask... Where did order yours from?
dont know how everyone else is getting on but...
ordered my 500s on the 18th june. rang the bolton dealer up yesterday and he said yours is at status 40 (in the country). he said "expect to wait a few weeks", which was no problem for me as i want the 63 plate.
however he did say that there are loads of new 500s waiting in the country which have been ordered. i assume they only have so many transporters
ciao :slayer:
It's called Bolton motor park. I was a bit concerned that it may have been delayed because the salesman I dealt with left.
I suspect yours will be very soon depends how far down south you live
