My dealer went bust !!! But FIAT are still doing my order

[Suasexed]

Get you and your posh-Glos dealer

The extra 25 is good because I've managed to bring a load of orders forward, but the 5 Pops are proving a bit hard to shift

I suppose that's what happens when you make cars so personal?

[Suasexed]

If I hadn't ordered one and I was popping in this weekend for a 500 I'd take that yellow one of yer. I've really fallen for the yellow 500, especially with the chrome But I'm still happy with Cha Cha Cha

Have you seen a yellow one for real Tom (or anyone else)? I haven't, only in photographs.
When I went to Heart of England Centre I saw a few different colours but someone had 'borrowed' the yellow one.

I still can't find a dealer with a 1.2 I can drive either - OK Cornwall is the nearest I've heard about!

The 1.2s are arriving according to Fiat but they don't seem to be able to tell me who's been allocated what...either that or my incredible charm has not enabled me to get through to the right person yet. :P

My dealer better not lend out my 1.2 to anyone or I'll be very cross.

I know from experience that it's amazing what a Simonstone salesman will do if you slip him twenty-quid.

<Test-drive wise I mean - don't get too excited Tom>

No sure I want to know, ignorance is bliss.

Hey Kevin, I've seen two yellow ones in the flesh. It's quite a light yellow and not to my taste. It is not the same as Broom Yellow.

RO 57 YTW in Yellow is supposed to 'live' at Fiat Slough. Could that be one of the ones you have seen Jase?

I went to a Fiat event near Coventry but the yellow one was 'missing' presumed 'borrowed'

Zakkala has a yellow one being prepared at Autoworld Chesterfield at the moment.
I went over there yesterday with my Tranny (its a type of van Tom ) and collected some supplies from a builders merchants at the back of Autoworld but no sign of her yellow one.

The sales guy not a million miles from me whom I spoke to this morning (nothing to do with Autoworld) wasn't in a good mood - some of them are worrying if they are going to get paid this month!

It sounds to me like it's not very profitable being a Fiat dealer at the moment.

EDIT - 100th post: Yippey I can drive off in third gear

[Love that 500]

That has to be the most imaginative excuse to visit a Fiat dealer I have ever heard!
