Hi folks,
First post for me, so hello!
Just wondered if anyone could clarify if this is correct?
Fiat Panda 100bhp - 0 - 62mph is 9.5 secs
Fiat 500 1.4 sport - 0 - 62 mph is 10.5 secs
Is this right? I thought it was the same engine, but the 500 is a tad lighter than the Panda, so expected the times to be comparable or for the 500 to be a smidge quicker? Also, on the specifications on the Fiat website, the 1.4 sport seems to be down as an 8 valve rather than 16 - can anyone confirm that the 1.4 in the 500 is actually a 16 valve?
Also, can anyone advise if the gearing in the 500 is the same as the Panda 100? And finally - can anyone that's actually seen a 500 sport advise how the seats compare to those in the Panda 100?
Thanks folks!
