I am going to buy the 2012 Fiat 500 1.2 with only 70.000Km for 4.500eur - brilliant little car.

WakingCobain no one cares

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

I'm just here to put the 666. approval like to your comment

@@XavierBetoN goods one

+Kieran H he' s right

no he’s not right..the 500 is the proper car

Right car, wrong engine.

@@briansalmon1666 nah this is a baby's toy

only james may would think to wash his car mid way through a race

All scripted

@@speckopath6288 well it was a scripted show so....

Look again at the early snow scenes, same dirty sides there. Clearly, the car didn't get dirty during the race and then they went and cleaned it. They grabbed a shot they filmed on the day he drove it around in the snow and was just roadtesting it. They probably had an empty space in the race scene and went with a shot from a different day to fill it. This continuity error doesn't mean the whole thing was faked. The shot of the bikers jumping the car and how close it is is pretty good evidence of that, but not that error.

@@YourLoyalDeserter I’m pretty sure the whole race is fake, they’d have needed about 100 cameras all set up throughout the city. More likely they’d film clips and piece it together to make it look like race. Exciting result none the less but it being a real race doesn’t seem feasible

Yeah, with the amount of camera angles (especially stationary ones) you’d need a bloody big crew and at about 100 cameras if the ‘race’ were running in real time.

Really? I thought the Peel P50 was the best compact car

@Neil Leisenheimer nope

A true city pigeon is tough, responds quick, and from the looks of it, it just got away unscathed. If not, than that's Darwinisms for you.

Both right tho

Indeed! That's why this is always been one of my favorite top gear races

Gultekin COSAR i got a good MTB (mountain bike) and it's still hard to do jumps on a bmx bikes oh damn I have so much more respect for bmx'ers

He is more like I don’t care what anyone thinks and is very good at talking about cars

👏

They don't call him "captain Slow" for no reason

branot89 Or Mr. Slowly the Italians would call him.

I believe due to the fact that with his philosophy of cars he has ruined great brands such as Alfa Romeo and the Lancia

still the best engine that you can buy the car with (tho I agree that a petrol engine is more suited for Fiat 500's character)

the 1.4 Petrol would've been much better with actual power delivery

yeah sure, the 1.4 that is dead under 4000 rpm and returns 25 mpg, really amazing engine -_-

yeah but the 1.3 diesel is dead anywhere over 2k revs

your brain is dead

Have you passed the exam and got the car?

Have you passed?

Hate to break it to you 11 years later, but... it's all scripted.

***** Thanks!

+Flora Gosling fiat 500 could go for long distance travel don't worry about it

freddo 1614 I'm a fairly big fan actually, but they sometimes summarize their feelings for a car when they cut back to the studio.

+Flora Gosling We've had one since 2013 We love it. Does everything you ask it to do. Took it on the freeway (the Sport model), handles great and keeps up with traffic. You'd have to be extremely insecure to call it a "chick car"

How was it?

@@Brebgon great. Even drive smoothly for several trips to London and once my tyre burst going 70 mph in the fast lane, thing barely reacted or even shook so I could get to the hard sholder safety. I had three of them in a row. Swapped that brand for a vauxhall Crossland X now though but only because I needed a 5 door car.

You never heard about Clarksonius? 😣😂

Catweasle I hope the Pigeon is okay.

TheRagster15 They actually export it to other countries.

You're right!

Italian engineering :D

had to watch again u are right

True, but with safety regulations, crash crumple-zones, and MPG mandates, front-engine Fwd wins....

Teo P Nah... they could do totally safe mini 911's out of the 500 and Beatle. The only barrier is the cost. They'd have to cost about twice the price, because they would not be able to reuse Panda and Golf platforms.

They would cost a lot more in a rear engine configuration. I love rear engine but, as the previous commenter noted rear engines are not quite as safe. It would be expensive to make them safe thus why they can't exist rear engine.

Le Leedler Yeah, I know, it would probably cost as much as a Porsche Boxster. By the way, this reminds me that Beatle engine should be a 4-cylyinder boxer configuration, something like Subaru Impreza engine, but smaller, put behind the rear axle. We would end up with a smaller version of Porsche 911 with Boxster price, because it would have to be a unique platform, not something shared with the Golf. Similar with the Fiat 500, albeit with small inline engine. Boxer unnecessary there, obviously. Can be water cooled, like the new 911, no need for air cooled angine. Still, the rear engine configuration for the 500 would make it twice as expensive as the current model, because the platform could not be shared with the Panda. We live in the times when shared platforms and cutting cost is everything. Originality, design, tradition, heritage, these are no longer important.

I am saying though that I and most others do not want to spend upwards of 40k on a rear engine Fiat 500. The 500 is kind of an engineering marvel as somehow it is deemed safe by the iihs.

yes, the cars top speed is only 15 mph

a bmx's top speed is anywhere from 5mph to about 40mph depending on how steep the hill is

well maybe not the best of all diesels, but it's the best small (under 1.6L) diesel indeed

***** MultiJet is also 1.6 120cv and 2.0 170cv ;)

Franco96 GTA all great engines, with the 1.3 being the most efficient one

Giovani22 Complete rubbish. I drove one for a week in Italy. Extremely well made car. Very solid at speed and even on the motorway (I was amazed at how good it was at high speeds). The plastic interior (as opposed to what exactly?) is very nicely styled, good to touch and high quality. It aslo had half leather interior which was very good. Nice gear change, very light steering. 101bhp is loads in a city car of this size/weight. VW passats came with 75bhp 15 years ago for comparison. The 500 never felt slow on small Italian roads. I am 5'11 and never felt cramped in it. It's small city car, what exactly are you expecting of it? If you want a motorway cruiser that will easily do over 90mph why are you looking at a Fiat 500?

*****​​​ Complete rubbish ?? Not when your asking $21.000 for that horse and buggy. I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw that price tag. I don't know what the standards are in Europe ( probably not much ) but here in America we get more for our money .For $21.000 in America you can get a V6, 300 horse power, 262 foot torque , 4 door all leather interior , Sun roof and much more list goes on, and that's very standard . Really there's no comparison you get much more for your money with another car manufacturer here in the U.S . I'm not trying to brag really not but $21000 or more ?? Now that's rubbish 

Please tell me what car that costs $21000 comes with a v6, leather, etc. I don't think you would even get a Ford F150 for that anymore. Yes, USA has great value in cars but the fiat 500 is one of the cheaper cars in its class over here. I doubt it's the base spec for sale at $21000 either. No one sells base spec in America. Besides, the fiat 500 costs nowhere near that in Europe. You did hear him say it costs £8000 yeah?

*****​​ There's a whole list of good value cars here example: You can start with chrysler 200 ,4 door v6, 295 hp . Loaded with features and leather . Chevy camaro $22.500( my next purchase) V6, 424 hp , 4 door all leather interior , loaded with cool features and more ( also available in V8) . Check this out , you can get a toyota corolla $16.900 4 door partially loaded 4cylinder 16 valve 150hp . You don't see to many fiats 500 here at all but when you do it looks so tiny and out place and unsafe for these roads . If your telling me that it costs $8000 euros in Europe well then the exchange rate in U.S. dollars would be around $9.000 a (little over) and that's exactly what I thought it was worth not $21.000. But then again it's not my style, and let's be honest the fiat 500 is not a cool looking car you are not going to impress a woman with that . Sorry lo. P.S it's noisy 

***** I really thought fiat was going to bring back the Alfa Romeo, not the 500 . They should of left it there .
