500 New purple 500 Lounge

[james44422]

What a bute! I dont think i've ever seen a purple 500. There is a purple 107 that drives around Chipping Sodbury but it really is very purple, i'm actually quite taken with it. Purple on a car looks suprisingly good

Welcome!

do like that with the 16 multispokes and chrome mirrors, will look stunning in the sun shine when it eventually returns

 

[Reuuk]

Purple!?

Thats Fantastic! hope your enjoying it!

 

[RUI]

Looks good, I would not have specified the bow when ordering as it may get in the way.

 

[Melanabb]

Really nice looking with all that shiny chrome.... Enjoy!

That looks sooooo good , I have a purple 500C lounge on order with an Ivory roof, its making me eager to get mine now but I've got at least 3 more weeks to wait .

Really enjoy it, theres nothing like a new car to put a smile on your face

GORGEOUS! I got back to my car recently and found one parked next to me! I really like the colour and I think if it had been available when I got my car, I would have gone for the purple. It's understated but looks lovely when the light hits it.

Really nice colour.

 

[OrangeSport]

That is very nice. Which engine is in it? What the those seats too?

 

[Purple500]

Thanks everyone, has made me realise I chose the right colour, It was that or red!
Its the 1.2 as we live and work in town so didn't need much more. (We've got a civic for the lengthy drives.)

I am very happy so far with it, the colour really does sparkle in the light but isn't 'in your face' Rather subtle And the chrome does finish it off me thinks!
I'll post some more pics when the snow disappears.

The purple looks lovely in the daylight, a deep aubergine type of colour!

 

[chas379]

Looks really good, chrome mirror backs set it off very well. You'll enjoy!!

Hope your bow doesn't get too soggy in this weather

 

[Purple500]

Aubergine is exactly how I describe it! As for the bow....they didn't let me keep it

Its a lot of fun to drive. Can't wait till winters over and I can get some lovely shots of it!

 

[Chrisilda]

Purple is such a great color! (jealous )

 

[Deano5665]

Absolutely stunning. It looks like your handover experience went a whole lot better than mine. Enjoy!!

 

[Purple500]

Thanks oooh, do go on? What happened?

Thanks oooh, do go on? What happened?

Well, went to the showroom on tuesday for the handover, signed for the car. whilst i was waiting for the car the salesman tried to miss sell me some gap insurance told me i would get a phone call soon asking about my experience and that if i gave anything under a 10, it would be deemed as a failure on his part. He went off to get the keys, i had a look around my new baby and spotted something very wrong. the two pieces of trim either side of the badge were odd, one was satin the other bright chrome. salesman came back with the key, which was a spare and not a remote because it had been broken, and i pointed it out to him he claimed that it must have been done at the factorypromised it would be sorted. He then said get in turn ignition on and ill show you blue and me, set your phone up blah blah. Turned on and nothing worked, radio, blue and me, nothing, so i then had to wait 30 mins while the car was PDI'd.
All in all it was a complete shambles and i now have to take it back to have the bits done and key programmed

What is wrong with some dealerships. Not what you would expect in such a competitive market place.
