Had a perusal through the 500L forum and there sure seems to be a mixed bag of comments ranging from 'it's a wonderful car' through to 'It's horrid.
I didn't really like it when it first came out but I have warmed to it.
We currently have a 500 1.2 Lounge which we love bar the lack of space in the rear particularly the inability to carry five people and the small boot. We need more carry capacity if we can get it and now need five doors again ideally. (elderly relative alert!!)
Coincidently we got a a call last night from the dealer who was enthusing about what a great deal he could do us at the moment (I'll be the judge of how great it is thanks) if we wanted to swap our 18 month old 500. There is clearly some sort of drive going on for the new 63 regs.
I've looked at a good few reviews on line and the 500L seems quite well regarded, My worry is that you don't actually see that many on the road and I'm wondering just how well they are doing. If they are not selling why is this, they look to be a decent competent well specd. car even at entry level. To me they look no better and no worse than many other mini MPV's.
We are going into the dealers this Friday for a chat and a possible test drive - any thoughts before we go in.
Oh I like the 4x4 Panda too but that seems to have much less space...
Cheers.....
