General Just bought a new Fiat 500L Trekking

[fused]

Just drove the new 500L Trekking home last night after a good test drive. Still getting used to the Auto-Shift dual clutch but liking it a lot.

Also own a Mini Countryman Manual and keeping it.
Love the mini.

But needed a car that would handle the roads nicely and yet, take care of inching though city rush hour...which is just a pain with a stick. Especially here in Pittsburgh PA with the hills.

It didn't take long, a test drive and it just clicked.

Price was very reasonable, Mini's are a bit pricier.

So sure, only had it for less than a day, drove it home in a serious rain storm, today nice and dry...
Its just very easy to handle, the dash is intuitive and the manual mode is fun.

I'm now a Fiat owner.......

Hello and welcome to the world of FIAT 500L ownership, currently a bit of an exclusive club (in the UK at least) but hopefully growing day by day....

But you lucky Americans get a 160bhp engine: we don't

Yeah the 160hp is fun. Not quite my mini with 190hp but the fiat is no slouch....
