My new Mod Blue Baby - Pandora

[yoshi]

No matter how many times you see another 500 you cannot help but smile . Having not really studied the blue options it looks like a metallic which looks great on the out side and awesome on the inside, Really nice colour and as for those alloys......yum yum (glad I've ordered them)

Congratulations looks fantastic Beautiful colour I'm from around Hertford way - Drive through there a couple of times per week. If you see someone waving in either a blue 2003, private plated Fiesta LX, or a Pepper White Mini (again on private plate), it'll be me!

Nice car, nice wheels, nice seats, nice number plate!
Never quite sure about small cars in dark colours, but that mod blue looks cools. Well done.

Ok will do, will keep an eye out. . I am in Bengeo and usually on the road between there and Welwyn Garden City (for work).

I love the colour and love the metallic for sure. I think we all have our favourite colours but they mostly all look good. I saw a Ye Ye Green and it looks pretty good for real, pleasantly surprised.

Once I stick on my bonnet strip, put on the new replacement aftermarket alloys and my rectangular Italian Flag badge (which will go on the boot) I will post more pics that dont have any rain on them

Looks great. They were the alloys I was supposed to be getting but they weren't available so I got the "Lounge" 16's. Your alloys looked two tone on the 5oo.com config but in the alloy the look one colour. Two colour would be the dogs IMO. Looks like you've gone for a Lounge and Sportised it whilst I went for a Sport and Loungeised it.

I know what you mean about a bit bouncey on 16's but I think FIAT could have got the damping a bit better as I reckon it's a bit harsh and it's my only gripe about the car as it doesn't work well with the short wheel base IMO. Having owned loads of FIAT Group cars I would say they are capable of a lot better. Be interesting to see how the Abarth rides as that could be an option for the future.

I'm still only getting 40.2 MPG overall with 280 miles on the clock. Should I be worried?

I'm not too far from you so maybe see you on the road one day.

The MPG does sound too low. Why not have an emissions test on it, as this will highlight any running issues.

I'll do a couple of trip runs first to see if that shows up any difference.
