Have recently collected a a new 500 for the wife.
1.3 d Lounge, sunroof, 16" wheels, leather gear knob.
Its a lovely little thing in white, bags of standard kit, so much technology, and very cleverly designed.

Handling is very 'skippy' at the rear, especially if you hit a hole mid-corner.
Economy good at 54mpg - but I was expecting better for such a small car.
Technology let down by Windoze - no change there then! rolleyes
Driving position awful, all the pedals and seat too high.

Wife loves it, and it gets so much positive attention, which is a nice change. cool
