G-Force Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Is it me or are there fiat 500's everwhere. On my way to school I saw seven today! There not even very nice cars! Anyone noticed them?
JerseyRider Posted March 21, 2011 Posted March 21, 2011 Abarths mmmmmmmm I work on them at work.... I love them
Hubert Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Quality, reliable, and whilst not exactly cheap, they're in-expenisve when compared to similar sized cars (buying upfront and MPG) Pretty comfortable from what I remember. Internally, they're bigger and better than the 2001 BMW re-hash of the Mini - yet they're not that much bigger than the mini. If I was given one, I wouldn't mind. (I'm learning to drive in my instructor's new mini, but I've had a run about the new F500 - 500 is much nicer) Also - retro/classic styling. They bring an element of classic 1960's art-decco styling to the roads. Like I said, if I was given one, I wouldn't complain.
Supporters M_P Posted March 22, 2011 Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 Smite them. They are disgusting, I think they are girls cars, way too feminine Not sexism intended.
Hubert Posted March 22, 2011 Posted March 22, 2011 Hahahaha, fair enough. I won't lie, most of the girls I know who drive (and are rich lucky enough to own their own car) own Fiat 500s. But! James May owns one! Good enough for me. They're not my favourite car (I know my previous post made it sound like they are) I'm just saying why I reckon why apparently they're so popular.
Supporters M_P Posted March 22, 2011 Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 I'm pretty sure James mgay owns a panda not a 500.... no I don't stalk him
Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted March 22, 2011 Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 james may does indeed own a panda on the F500 note, I despise them. almost as much as porches (opinion on those can be found in the favourite cars thread)

Supporters Rock-climby-Dave Posted March 22, 2011 Supporters Posted March 22, 2011 as do you, good sir.
JerseyRider Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I dont know how you can say that is discusting... lol
Supporters M_P Posted March 23, 2011 Supporters Posted March 23, 2011 That is disgusting. It's like the iPhone of cars.
Hubert Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 IS that a real car?! It looks like someone squashed it...
JerseyRider Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 Hey... we arnt talking about smart cars here..

sarni307 Posted March 23, 2011 Posted March 23, 2011 I absolutely promise you if you were to have a 500 for one week you wouldn't want to Give it back FACT...
Supporters M_P Posted March 23, 2011 Supporters Posted March 23, 2011 Maybe the abarth.... ill give you that
G-Force Posted March 24, 2011 Author Posted March 24, 2011 My mate's mum owns one and she picks us up for school, comfy but I wouldn't want to be seen driving one, seem to femanine for me (no sexism or offence intended) Plus I don't really like small cars
Mitchell Gee Posted April 4, 2011 Posted April 4, 2011 i love Abarths, the most ive ever seen in one place is about 50 at a hillclimb, they all did a parade and then in the paddocks (with all the cars capable of over 200mph they stood out the most, you could see the engines etc etc. ive got some photos somewhere i will upload them when i find them
-Ub3R- Posted April 5, 2011 Posted April 5, 2011 I personally don't like them. Not a big fan of Fiat's either. But the Abarth is a quick car and most car reviewers have high praise for them. If I was going to have any hot hatch. (And lets exclude the Type-R for a moment here ) Gotta be the Volvo C30 Polestar. Man I want them to make that car.
Supporters M_P Posted April 6, 2011 Supporters Posted April 6, 2011 If I wanted a small car I'd get a Citroën ds3..... theres a chance ill have one in January too
