Writing on behalf of my Wife.
She purchased a new 500 1.2 Pop in Pasodoble red in July.
She loves it and so do the kids (8 & 4)
This is no standard Pop though, as when ordered added the following items

Rear tints
Multi Spoke Alloys
Red with Black seat upholstery.
Red side rubbing strips with 500 logo
Rear head restraints
Chrome Exhuast trim. don't ask about this though, what a pain to get !!!

Also has private 500 plate.

I love driving the car but prefer mine which is an Audi A2 TDI sport, got that extra bit of OOOMph, but perhaps not the style (wife standing over me)

Hmm why the Pop over the Sport if you don't mind me asking? Was it the seat trim?
Yes it does lack umph but it certainly makes up for it in style
Any reason why you've only just joined us? I was on here months before I bought obsessing over options! lol
Look forward to speaking to you and your wife on the main forum!

Bought the Pop as only wanted the £35 road tax. But also the seat trim she really wanted. As I said doesn't look like a Pop as has Alloys etc.

Pop is really only used to take the kids to school, get to work and do the shopping.

Did join in May, but had issues with logging in and finally got that resolved the other day.

It will be me on hear rather than my wife, as she doesn't do this kind of thing. Thinks it a bit sad all meeting and discussing cars !!!

I use forums for cars I don't even own anymore !!

My other half got me into car forums, hes always been on ones for his Rover and he finally turned me into a nerd when I was looking for a new car and stumbled across here
I did think about speccing up a Pop too as I loved the seats but worked out better value in the end for me to get the Lounge as I really wanted Blue & Me too.
Bet the kids look cool turning up to school in that, I'm a teacher and the kids at school love the car!

Yes they always want to go to school in Mummys car !!!!

not in "the brick" as is my car affectionately known as.

She wasn't fussed about the Blue & me, just wanted a 500 and the cheaper the better but tastefully optioned up.
