Hello Everyone

Just joined the forum having bought a 500c cross 4x4 2.0 diesel auto yesterday.

I went into dealer to buy a Panda 4x4 twin air, but because the internal layout wasn't quite right, I ended up agreeing to buy a 500x. My current car is on its last legs and I could wait a 10 build time.

I'm happy with the decision and got a good deal - March ending approaching etc. It was clearly already spec'd up: winter pack; visibility pack; heated seats; flappy paddles. The colour was what I wanted (black) even though I probably wouldn't have wanted a 9-speed auto.

My question - and its a bit daft - but does this model (its not the cross plus) come with a front armrest? Has anyone got this model?

When I look online, some sites say yes, others no. If it hasn't got one can I get one as a dealer fit or a good aftermarket sale? There are a couple of shabby examples on ebay, but I dont want the car looking tatty with a $50 piece of generic kit.

Not the most earth shattering question, but aesthetics do matter.

Thanks

According to Fiat, it comes part of the comfort pack, in addition to the keyless entry and electric lumbar adjustment.
If yours doesn't have these then it is unlikely.

I guess thats part of the price / frustration of buying off the shelf, rather than specifying what you want and waiting.

Anyone got any ideas for me?

Not the end of the world, but it would be nice.

Thanks all.

Found an armrest on Woodcompany site - an Italian supplier.

Has anyone got any experience of this company or its products?

Thanks again in advance.

No experience of this company - however, if you do purchase - please let us know your thoughts on the product. It looks like a winner to me and at a decent price too

Www.woodcompany.com in Italy have specific range for 500x. I've got a factory one on mine, part of pack on X plus and they look almost Identical. Mike
