Hello all,
It was only when I took delivery of this one that I realised how many FIATs and Alfas we've had over the years (must be suckers for punishment!!). I've had two Unos, two Bravos (the 1990s one and the 2000s one) a Seicento and two Alfas if they count-a 147 and a Mito.
In fairness we have had very few problems (except with the 147 which was definitely a Friday afternoon car).
Anyway, I decided it was time for something small and electric and looked at lots of options. My feeling was that the 500 wasn't the best at anything but was the best overall package.
I'm blown away by this thing. The build quality is immense-far better than the VW ID3 for example IMHO. Everything about it ooses quality. The new UConnect is incredibly good and the screens are pin sharp. The one issue I have is that the rear numberplate light doesn't work and because it's an LED and not user replaceable, it's been booked in for that.
I'd certainly like to share experiences with other 500 Electric owners or anyone else who has questions!
Greg.
