General Do Fiat UK stock 500's?
Take a look on autotrader, there are dealers with reasonable stock levels.
The downside is that you have to take what they have, many of the options are factory fit, which according to my dealer is why they struggle to sell stck cars.
Where are you located as Wessex Fiat have a good stck & a good reputation.

As mark has already said, you might be lucky but you may have to go with a colour or spec slightly different to your 1st choice. If its a new order then its a 14/16 week wait. There are a number of larger dealers with stock, for example I know that here in the south west vospers have a number of units available from stock.
Good luck

I ordered a 1.4 sport with nothing extra bar the stripe and it took exactly three weeks from ordering...
You might be lucky, best thing is to go to a dealer and find out.

Ask your dealer, they will be able to show you all cars available with just a short wait for delivery. There were some stock 1.2s at Bristol only last week.

I ordered a 1.2 Pop, in white with black interior, standard trim with the exception of side protectors. The Fiat dealer looked on their system and found one already on the boat to the UK to my exact spec, picked it up 2 1/2 weeks later.
I don't think there is any chance of there being a Funk White in stock anywhere in the UK so I guess I'm playing the waiting game! LOL
Wilsons is just on the edge of Epsom town centre next to the Sainsburys/Halfords/Wickes development. Was passing today so popped in to have a look. They've got 6 or 7 in the showroom and one was outside all for sale. Good variety of colours, white, red, yellow, black and orange. I liked them all! Not keen on the big '5' that was on one of the bonnets. The orange is not a bright orange like the Punto, more subtle but very very nice. No sign of any tan leather on show though. One couple looked like they were buying and someone else went out on a test drive. So tempted, but i've only had my 100HP for 10 months so i'll have to give it another 12-18 months I think......
i got my 100hp 11 months ago and i love it to bits... call me a dafty but i've a 500 on order now, couldn't resist after seeing my sisters! only 3 weeks to go!! you know you want to
But you'll miss the 100HP! Tempting as it is, I really like the 100HP and this time next year the 500 will still be fresh and maybe a bit easier to come by (I'm not all that fussy about colour/spec so may be able to pick up a bargain, who knows?). Something to look forward to anyway!
That's the most difficult 500 to get hold of at the moment.
Stock levels are very good for people looking for a 1.4 16v or a MultiJet, pretty good for those looking for a 1.2 Sport but dreadful for those looking for a 1.2 Pop or Lounge.
The next batch of 1.2 Lounge are due to be built in Week 29 (week after next) so should be with dealers about 4 weeks later if you can wait that long?
So there are no unsold cars at dealerships then?if its not sitting on the dockside in bristol jct 19 M5 along with the rest of the vehicles its not in the country

I dont know what dealership you went to but both the ones I went to said - before we even started and I told them I had a part ex - that there was absolutley no chance of a discount even on a stock car. I did manage to get £500 above book price for my part ex though.
