For the music alone you probably asked for it to be fair.

I must say I have not seen another guy driving a 500 yet. Every other one, (I've seen a good ~15+), all female. I do feel that it is generally viewed as a girly car, but I don't particularly care, because, I appreciate the good design, and it simply looks darn cool, and is fun to drive :P

At least people think when they see the car, whereas you could drive around in something much more common like a 206, or a Corsa etc, and people won't even notice/think.

Saw a bloke driving a white one this morning. Gave him a wave and he waved back

The 500 has just been voted 'Britains sexiest car' by female drivers which seems to prove that a bloke in a 500 will attract the attention of the ladies, even if they are more interested in the car The mini clubman came third though so there's no accounting for taste

Not helping to make it any more manly are they. All because the lady loves…

Default Oldest 'Pop@

As a new owner and visitor to the site thought I would ask ...............As a male aged 47 years and the proud owner of a 500 pop does that make me the oldest owner in the UK? - ashamed - never..............

"The oldest Pop who owns and drives a Pop!" Long live Five Live!!!!!!

Probally does not belong here but heard that unleaded 'V' power is a better fuel to use - any advice?

You need to take the poll here ... Age before beauty

... but I think 47 is still quite young compared to our more senior owners ;-)

Yes it is, but probably not worth the extra money. Not that that stops me putting it in ours. I spoil these cars.
