Fiat 500 reviews

Excellent car, fun to drive and easy to park, small size not a problem as it's perfect for one or two if I have to

I love my volare blue fiat 500. She is gorgeous and does nearly everything I would like it to. I would like the automatic lights that I had on my Vauxhall Corsa as I found that very useful. I would also like the clock to change automatically. However my car is cute, reliable, much roomier than expected and perfect for short or long journeys.

No issues since purchase 2 years ago. Fuel Economy not as good as published. Enjoyable car to drive. If only the supplying dealer was as reliable as the car(Stoneacre). Dealer backup not good.

this is my second 500 changing from a 1.2L to a TwinAir. The performance is incredible for the size especially the acceleration for safer London driving. This is mainly a commuter car - total monthly cost is less than public transport season tickets and half the time so it does pretty much all I need very well.

The Fiat 500 is great... small, compact, cheap to run, reliable, comfortable, spacious and 'solid on the road. I never want to change.....

This is a great small car for around town driving and can hold its own on motorway journeys also. Very comfortable to drive and very economical.

The Fiats modest size makes it a perfect runabout for 1 or two people. The headroom is very generous in the front so even a tall driver and front passenger have a comfortable space. There is plenty of room in the boot for grocery shopping and the back seat drops down easily if you need extra space for your 'stuff'. I have often carried items back from the DIY store that really don't look as if they will fit, but they do. You can fit a 2.4 metre length of wood diagonally across from the front dash to the back! The Fiat 500 is super easy to park and using the 'city' setting on the steering it is extra nippy in tight spaces or busy traffic. A full tank of petrol (about £40 Oct 2013)will give you about 440 miles and with road tax only £30 annually the fiat is hard to beat for economy. Drawbacks that need consideration are that its extreme light weight contributes to a lack of road holding on ice and snow so extra care is needed in bad weather. Also window condensation can be a problem in wet conditions. To round up, the Fiat 500 is a perky little runabout, cheap to run and LOTS of fun to drive!

Lovely, small car. Good level of equipment and easy to drive.

Essentially the least depreciating car I've ever had. But its a Fiat none the less; so it was okay till it got to about 30,000 miles before it started having issues. At the end of the day the lack of depreciation just about balances the repairs. No hope of me buying a Fiat again.

I've had the car for a year now and enjoy driving it. I wanted a smaller car, so it suits me and is good for nipping around in. The only negative so far is the comfort - sometimes can feel the bumps in the road a little too easily!

My diesel Fiat 500 which I ordered direct from Fiats with lots of extras to personalise it for me is fantastic. Cheap road tax, 60 - 70 mpg, comfortable and nifty it's the perfect car for me. Not much room as my dog takes up the whole of the back seat but for 1 - 2 people for shopping or long distance it's perfect.

Cracking little car, not as frugal as advertised but fun to drive and so far reliable. Which is just as well as I am not as impressed with the supplying dealer as I am with the car.

Not only does my Fiat look good but it is efficient, easy to drive and great to park in small spaces. Don't think I would like to do a long journey with more than two adults in the car but is brilliant around town and going to and from work. I would definitely recommend a Fiat 500.

For the price you cannot expect more. It ticks all the boxes and provides all that we require.

Am very pleased with my Fiat 500 - deceptively spacious car which is comfy to drive. Good fuel effiency, low tax and low cost wheels (especially with the AA discount!) And am absolute gem to park!

Love this car, cheap to run, looks great. Love my soft top, it can open all the way or in stages, I have it open all year round even if just for a little while. I will definitely buy another one, there are so many funky colours and ways to customise, I can't wait till I can afford to upgrade. Wish the seating and seatbelts were a little more comfortable but that's my only gripe.

Ideal for driving around town and parking is easy. Boot can hold weekly shopping.

I am delighted with my Fiat 500. it gives me everything I want and need and I want no other vehicle!

Although our Fiat 500 is technically my run-around, and popping to work car, we often also use it for family trips. A weeks shopping easily fits in the boot, the family of 4 fit comfortably inside, and it's great fun to drive. Very economical on fuel, cheap to insure and tax. Only downside is that the tank is very small, so needs regular top-ups. And as I have the 1.1 model, it's not brilliant at up-hill speeds when full of passengers. Might go for a bigger engine next time, but will definitely buy another Fiat 500 next time

Apart from being stared at and waved at by small children! this pink car is great fun to drive. Very economical and cheap to tax. Limited space though and has a very small boot. Back seats do fold down though. The USB point is rubbish though and despite buying a very expensive adaptor from Fiat I've never been able to connect my phone or iPod :-(
