got 2 white 500s, a lounge and pop in the window, with a cutesy old red 500 too! if the mrs had any doubts before, they were kind of blown away seeing the car in the metal, albeit from the other side of the showroom glass. the slew of panda variants on the forecourt were totally ignored.....

i have been ordered to arrange a test drive

What do you think of the alloys on the white 500 with the rubbing strip and chrome wing mirrors?

Most dealers only got one white lounge,oneblue diesel lounge and one red sport..U say they have 2 whiteys?R U sure one of them is a white POPULAR.(Black door mirrors and little wheels)I've not seen a Popular yet?

i thought it was, but prob wrong, yes both white, one with chrome wing mirrors, which i really like, the rubbing strip with the 500 badge on the end looks cool too..the mrs loves all the alloys available, but the black and grey "spokey" ones are her fave

Apologies for the poor picture but I didn't want to get too close and enhance my reputation at the dealership of being the local 500 stalker.

The 2 extra launch cars have started arriving, so it's very possible a few unsold ones have made it into showrooms now.

i had booked my test drive with them on launch night, i took it out (without a salesman next to me) late last week. i tried the 1.3 was a fun little car, just didn't feel as mechanical as any other car i've driven. i actually prefer driving the cinq... i am genuinely amazed to admit that

this is the case, they have one white one red one blue (1.3) and an oldschool classic 500 restored very nicely.
