General Ordered New 500S Twinair

[Maisie500S]

Hello, new to all this!
I ordered my new 500S Twinair on 26th march and had a phone call on 1st may to say it had finished being made but would take 4 weeks to be delivered does this sound realistic? I phoned fiat today to check delivery and he said there wasn't a date on the computer and would phone me back, have heard nothing since. Can't wait to get it have never had a new car before or a fiat! Very excited! Slightly worried about posts on here saying there is a manufacturing fault on the new 500S

No fault, just a shortage of particular coloured handles/trim. Nothing to worry about.

 

[Maisie500S]

Okay that's good to hear! thanks

hello, what spec did you go for?

 

[Maisie500S]

Hi, 0.9 Twinair, bossanova white, red mirror covers, black alloys, fixed glass roof, rear parking sensors, bi-xenon headlights, fog lights, hi-fi system & ESP.

 

[bgunn]

Nice spec - you'll enjoy that

 

[Maisie500S]

Hi Maisie,

Sounds great. I just ordered mines on the 8th May so I have ages to wait. I read about the parts supply issue as well but it seems that that has now been resolved and parts are being delivered again now. If you're car is built already it shouldn't be a problem. Is it just waiting to be put onto a boat and brought into the UK just now?

I ordered a Twinair 500 S, Bossa Nova White, with fog lights, Interscope and the glass roof. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a cancellation

Good choice of Options :thumbup:
We've just picked ours up this week - we went with 16"alloys, rear Parking, Bi Xenons, Fog lights and HiFi too
As bgunn says, you will enjoy!
And as we've been told, one of the most expensive TA 'S' out there

Hi ordered my Twinair 500S on 23rd March and rang the dealer this morning to see where we were and there no news. I went for Electroclash Grey, 16" alloys, fixed glass roof and fogs. Second Fiat 500, but still can't wait

All of yours sound fab! I spoke to my dealer today and he said there has been a bit of a delay for mine hopefully will be delivered at the beginning of next month just got to hold tight until I hear anything else. Can't wait any longer!
