2010 Model - MissJ
I've been thinking of buying a Fiat 500 and on this site (and others) have seen references to a new model which will offer improved ride and handling. I went in to the showroom to test drive one today and the salesman didn't know anything about it.

Does anyone here know the bottomline on this? Is the salesman trying to shift current spec or is the new model just a rumour based on improvements in the 500c and Abarth models? Should I wait, or place my order?

Thx for any help.

I have been enquiring about the Kia Ceed facelift model due to be released in the next month or so, all the sales people I have spoken to claim it will not be on sale untill well into next year. I suspect stock parked on airfields to be cleared.

Have a look at a grand punto as I think you get a lot more car for your money.

However if you must have a 500 don't trust salesmen most will tell you whatever you want to hear !

So take HJ advice and get to know what to look for underneath.
