FIAT 500L, MINI Clubman competion?

[Dieselman]

We've got a number of these knocking about prior to launch.

Will it be a competitor to the MINI Clubman, what do you think?

How do they compare price wise? Mini Clubman is mega buckS IMO.

To start at £15k apparently.

I like it, it'll probably be about half the price of a Clubman as well...

 

[trapperjohn]

About 2k less than the Clubman then.

I suppose it will be a "fashion/design" thing then.

I think it has a chance but I wont be having one any time soon. You could buy 15 210s for the price of 1 Fiat 500!!

How about a Clubvan just for fun.

Well the Clubman starts from £14400, so there is not a lot of price difference. Perhaps you meant is it a competitior for the Countryman?

The 500L is not exactly a looker. They look worse in the metal than in the pictures IMHO. The usual problem of trying to overextend the range. In fact just like the Mini.

Sorry, but I can't see someone wanting to buy into the BMW brand going for a Fiat.

I was on the production line in Serbia for build trials in August and quite impressed with the interior. The exterior is a bit marmite I guess, will depend on whether or not you like the existing 500.

Isn't that just a panda with the square corners sanded down?

P.s. sort out your photography skills!

I see what you mean but the Panda is quite cute in a quirky sort of way. This just looks wrong and out of proportion. They have been avaialble in Italy for a short time now and they really do not look any better on the road.

It will probably sell better than this!!!!
