Wink 500 meets snow for the first time ;-)

Hey Everyone,

Hope you're doing okay, I thought I'd take a couple of pics of our 500 with snow on it for the first time, it's probably feeling a little cold now, so I may take it for a spin later ;-) Still have two days left on the ecoDRIVE thing before it can fully evaluate me :P

Hope you're well,

Charlie -

That's not fair! All it's done here is rain!

No Snow here either. Car looks great though.

Thanks Bexx ;-) The ecoDRIVE is really simple to setup, the Fiat instructions are all you need! I didn't get round to driving today unfortunately, so, I still have two more days. The car is frosting now! Wonder if it will start tomorrow! ha ha

We've not had any snow here yet, but I got 'sprayed' by an effin gritter on the way back from work, which was heading towards me. It was too dark to check for any damage to my paintwork, so will have to check in the morning.

My old Classic Mini was once killed by a speeding gritter which we got stuck behind for a short while.

That`s not snow Here we got 15 cm of wet snow today And my 500 still has got it`s summerwheels on!!!! So I guess I have to change the wheels on it this weekend. I upgraded the winther wheels from 14" steel wheels to the 15" aluminium multispokes one with nokian nodubbed tires.... By the way I did not drive the 500 to work today luckily I still got my old chrysler with winther wheels on it..........

Ha ha, okay, first time *my* 500 met the snow ;-) I'd like to see a picture of a 500 completely covered, and just the snowy outline of the car visible ;-)

New Fiat 500 forums - dawesy's Album: PUNKSTER! - Picture

This is Dawsey's car with a little more snow on then yours, an older pic though from early this year.

I will have to give the ecodirve a go as I do quite a few miles let us know the results. x
