Not been in a Fiat 500. Drive a rental Panda it's based on and wasn't that impressed. The driving position would've suited a gorilla and it was so top heavy there was no fun driving it. |

I drove a 500 abarth with a monza exhaust system. Very nice car I thought, so much so that I might get rid of the a5 cab for one for the missus. |

I think it would be a fun little car to drive for a while. Wouldn't want to get rid of my RR for one though, and a Fiat 500 would struggle to tow my 3500kg trailer.

The thing I couldn't take with one and shared with the sport and disco as well is the constant banging of my knee on the centre console or running on it during trips. The full fats is nice and soft as is the citroens but hard cheap plastic there isn't for me. And a small car is meant to have a petrol engine that red lines 100rpm past peak power so as James May has said, you change gear when the tappets are dancing on the bonnet' 😄😄😄 FFRR MY06 facelift With TDV8 Alloys Zeros/ATR's
