Looks great. Is it a Sport you have? If so, how did you manage to get the glass roof (does it open too?)? I thought the glass roof & opening roof was only on the Lounge?

Yes it is Sport,

The roof is not opening, but you can ask for glass roof opening or not

I would like to have kept the cover, but the dealer wasnt having any of it, birthday or no birthday

Can anyone spot the added extra that is not part of the build on any 500, ?

It was a special request ( £50 extra)

Is it the wing mirror stalks being red? Or is that normal, I have the chrome mirrors, but the stalks are black.

That was too easy , I didnt want chrome, but colout coded, colour coding was only the back top part of mirrors and not including stalk.

Was a bit concerned around too much red, but it looks ok in the flesh.

On the 500 Configurator thing on the Fiat website, it will only let you have a sunroof (opening or not) on the Lounge. I like the Sport but I really wanted an opening sunroof.

Can the dealer fit any option to any trim?

I am sure you can have the opening glass roof on the sport.

Just rechecked, I was only half right: Fixed glass roof only on the Sport. Not an opening one, at least according to the configurator on Fiat's site. Have you heard otherwise?

Well I tried it on the fiat site and you can only have the electric sunroof on the sport if you take the full leather option.
