Default Anyone "Smelt" The Fragrence Dispensers?

Has anyone actually smelt the frangrances fron the FIAT plug in smelly dispenser at all.

Was thinking I may treat myself but have held off for fear of being thought of as 'a little bit gay'

Someone else on the forum mentioned that the brochure has a scratch 'n' sniff page. I tried it and it works!! Might need another brochure now

I think I'll stick with the new car smell for a while but may ask the dealer to throw a fragrance dispenser, coat hanger and mats to sweeten the deal.

Topic for another thread - is the 500 gay, metrosexual, feminine, masculine, or unisex?

You'll get nothing thrown in at all.

I have tried as a result of the audio upgrade no being availble, I asked for the £300 alloys at £250 (same price as the audio upgrade), no moving on anything at all.

I have tried the scratch & sniff, just wondered what they were like in 'real life'

I think the fragrance diffuser is a bulky waste of money! I'd prefer to just buy a £2 air freshener from Halfords!

And I guess it must be quite gay as being gay myself I wouldn't go near it! Far too poncey for me!

Oh AND it uses your cigarette/12v lighter to work, what about your mobile phone and iPod charging! Priorities people!!

That's very true! I still think the diffuser is a very over-engineered solution to a simple problem!

Oh yes, I see European sizes

10 1/2 is the equivalent of 45 in European sizing, so mine are bigger than yours.
