absoloodle!!! (in the words of doc from THE POWER OF ONE - bryce courtenay...but i digress)
back to the 500 (in italian, literally the cinquecento)...this is the new incarnation of the original that came on the mass market in 1958 and pre-dates the iconic issigonis mini by a whole 2 years...
the new one obviously is bigger (no thanks to current crash regulations blah blah) but it still retains much of the cheekiness and chicness of the original...i totally love this and if it came into singapore at a decent price, would soooo consider this as a 2nd car for mrs kona...she happens to like the looks too...
most likely, for the singapore market it will be either the 1.2 8V or 1.4 16V engine but crucially the price has to be attractive of course...
let's wait and see...in the meantime, check out the FIFTH GEAR review of this gorgeous little streetcar named my desire
