The hoot test is genius. I so concur with it as a review issue. Our Peugeot 2008 has a puny pathetic hoot - I've contemplated asking Peugeot to upgrade it for me. 😄
I just love how retro & fun the Fiat 500 range is 🥰 one or two interior tech upgrades are necessary, although they don’t bother me too much. Every drive is such a fun one in one of these! ❤️🔥
A year later and I've just bought the 500x sport and I can tell you it is fun to drive and I just love the interior and retro exterior look. It is definitely quirky.
The Fiat range is quite old in Europe. The latest model launched in Europe from Fiat is the 500e (not available in SA). The 500x and Tipo/Egea have been available since 2015, the Panda since 2012 and the ICE 500 since 2007. In Brazil on the other hand, their lineup is newer.
Not a bad car, pricey now and a bit "older" eventhough it's updated. But If I was in the market for this, I would have preferred the previous 1.6 petrol, manual.
Based on a jeep renegade. Both made in the same factory. Same engine and gearbox too... Not sure I'd spend that kind of money on a brand with a little support base left in this country.
Unlikely, don't you think? Seeing as Supercar Blondie only does supercars and I have been doing this for 15 years. But I am flippen honoured to even be used in the same sentence as her, so thanks!
@@julietmcguire Rubbish she should be happy to be mentioned on your channel. She is way to false and will never honestly review and critique any car :-)

We have Connor to thank for this great idea!
These European city cars are designed to look good and hoot to say 'hi' rather than a 'f*k off'...

I loveeee your videos Juliet!!
I also so badly want Fiat to bring the 500E to South Africa
Thank you Juan-Paul!!!! Let's hold thumbs
At least the dashboard isn't covered with that gastly " Tablets " and the console with piano black.😉
Jules, ever thought of stand up|? Love your rants, so South African XD
Hahaha I fear the audience would throw vrot tomatoes at me!

I can see the new Ora Cat competing with this although it is electric 🤔
Whats it like on fuel mine is the 1.6 diesel and its really good 😊
Does it have good fuel consumption, I've been considering a 500x but Im afraid of the costs of owning one
@@monarch7743 it's very good it's best on long runs but good
@@monarch7743 the diesel consumes around 6-7L per 100km ...its okay but not he best in this class
@julietmcguire is so much beeter than supercarblondie. So much more relatable. Keep up the practical reviews. Loving it
Thank you Cheslyn!! xxx
How much is that in US dollars?
We might have a South African cooler version of super car blonde people!💫
Shes trying to be like supercarblondie😂😂

Did you mention supercarblondie 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

The indicator and hooter sounds alone makes it a NO for me
Cute..❤
I see the car seat there 🤬
"Convertible?"
Ya, I know!!! Not exactly, right?!
The horn sounds like an ashmatic 8 year old…
road rage does not suit you babe focus on the car review ,people in RSA can't drive you should be used to it by now.
What does it look like when road rage does suit a person?
@@julietmcguire you get it , don't let them win by making you angry just accept that you share the road with idiots, 😜
@@julietmcguire like a taxi driver 😂
Juliet, I'm you when I'm driving. People can't drive period and that's nothing to get used to 😂 scream and hoot, we'll laugh about it later
@@ZakPooe hahahaha yes!!! Thanks Zak.
I'm not spending 600k on this
😁
i like you
Irritating.
She is. She's a silly very hard to understand woman. I think she's speaking a sort of English maybe.
