Video: Fifth Gear Tests The New Fiat 500

The blokes at UKâ€™s Fifth Gear TV show got their hands on Fiatâ€™s new 500 taking it for a first drive. As you can see in the video, 5th Gearâ€™s Tom Ford was more than impressed with the Italian rival to BMWâ€™s MINI in the premium mini segment. Ford concludes that the 500 is a well made, practical and enjoyable mini with tons of character that may not be as sharp to drive as the MINI but itâ€™s cheaper, almost as spacious and at least as much of a pleasure to sit in.
