Hi All
I am the guy from another forum (IS) that 306Maxi was referring to who is trying to sort out a 500 order with the local (Australian) Fiat dealers with a interior / exterior colour combination that is unavailable here in Oz (but available from the Italian on-line configerator). A request has been sent to Italy and hopefully I should hear back within a week.
Just a few Questions if some of you could answer – so I know my stuff when I get that reply, so that I do not get stonewalled with any “no e possibli” excuses and can hopefully put an order in soon
Is the new colour “Azzurro Cuor Leggero” the same as the old ChaCha Blu ?? from the old and new brochures I have it looks darker …but that is just a printed page ? I am a bit wary of picking a colour sight unseen (my cousin in Italy has a ChaCha blu)
Is the fabric Pop red / ivory interior still available – it sort of disappeared from the configerators when I was fantasy shopping late last year, but now it has re-appeared on the Italian Website
With the 500C (outside chance that I will get this) I noticed that above combination is achievable BUT only with the Ivory roof – however with the black interior you can get a Red Roof – question do you think it possible to have a red / ivory interior and red roof ???
OK one last Question, a very important one, looking at all these discussions on this forum (many a wasted hour or two !!!) there appears to be “issues” with the 500 - Fine all cars have issues, but on the whole is the 500 a reliable motor ???
Cheers
