BBC Top Gear tests the Fiat 500 Abarth

November 10th, 2008

The Abarth Esseessee to be precise, and Jeremy Clarkson (for now) loves it, it also lapped faster than the Alpha 8C with The Stig at the wheel on the Top Gear track. Not bad going.

For now you can view the review and track session on the BBC iPlayer and we’ve also seen it on YouTube less The Stig’s efforts, here:

BBC Top Gear TV show to feature the Fiat 500 tonight

December 9th, 2007

For those in the UK, set your alarms for 9pm this evening when leading TV car show “Top Gear” will be featuring the new Fiat 500 tackling the streets of Budapest. James May, AKA Captain Slow (and apparent fan of the Fiat Panda) will be the team member taking the new baby Fiat to task.

Generally speaking Top Gear hasn’t been much of a car review show in recent times, more a bunch of lads messing about with cars and other diverse forms of transport, while banding about petrol head banter. But it’s always worth a watch and it will be interesting to see their take on the Fiat 500, not least as it’s the most watched, and therefore most influential car show on British TV.
