Why the Fiat 500 is the ideal city car
Driving Experience
The Fiat 500 is built for urban agility. Light steering, a tight turning circle and compact dimensions make it a dream in busy towns or tight car parks. It’s fun to drive, especially with the lively 1.0 or 1.2-litre petrol engines. More recent models come with a mild hybrid system for improved fuel efficiency and lower emissions.
It’s not just a city specialist either – the Fiat 500 is more than capable on the motorway, with a comfortable ride and decent refinement for a car this size.
Interior and Comfort
Inside, the 500 mixes retro touches with modern convenience. Expect a body-coloured dashboard, circular controls and smart upholstery. Despite its compact footprint, it feels airy up front, and there’s just enough room in the back for occasional passengers or extra shopping space.
Boot space stands at 185 litres – enough for the essentials – and the rear seats fold down if you need more flexibility.
Technology
The Fiat 500 is small but well-equipped. Depending on trim and year, features may include:
- Touchscreen infotainment
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto
- Bluetooth and USB connectivity
- Air conditioning
- Rear parking sensors
- Cruise control
- Digital instrument display (on newer models)
It’s everything you need to stay connected and comfortable on the move.
Body Style and Trim Levels
The Fiat 500 is available in two stylish body styles:
- Hatchback – Iconic three-door design, ideal for solo drivers, couples and city dwellers.
- Cabrio (500C) – Soft-top convertible version, perfect for open-air fun without losing the 500’s classic shape.
Popular trim levels include:
- Pop – Entry-level with essential features and the classic retro look.
- Lounge – Adds alloy wheels, touchscreen, sunroof (on some), and more comfort features.
- Sport – Sporty styling, unique alloy wheels and darker interior trim.
- DolceVita / Star / Rockstar – High-spec trims with chrome detailing, upgraded tech and premium finishes.
- Hybrid – Latest mild hybrid versions offering improved fuel economy and lower emissions.
You’ll also find limited editions and colourful special trims, making every used Fiat 500 feel unique.

FAQs
No. Carsa does not sell Category write-off vehicles. Every car we sell goes through an official Auto Trader Provenance Check, which confirms there's no outstanding finance, theft or write-off history, and verifies the mileage is accurate.
The V5C logbook is sent to you directly by the DVLA after we register the car in your name. You'll usually receive it within 4 weeks.
You don't need the V5C to drive or tax your car in the meantime. If it's been more than 4 weeks and you haven't received it, contact the DVLA directly.
If you can't make your appointment, please let us know as soon as possible so we can reschedule or cancel it for you.
If you don't turn up, your reservation fee won't be refunded. The fee is only refunded when you attend your appointment.
To change or cancel your appointment, please get in touch via our contact page.
When a car shows as 'in preparation', it means it's still going through our checks and reconditioning process. During this time, the car can't be reserved or booked for a test drive.
We would recommend leaving an enquiry on the car's page. This will ensure you are notified when the vehicle is ready.
Cars come with a manufacturer warranty when new, usually lasting a set number of years or miles. How much cover is left will depend on the car’s age, mileage and the manufacturer’s terms, so we can’t guarantee this for every vehicle. The best way to confirm the exact cover is to check directly with the manufacturer.
If you’d like extra cover, we have warranty products available at the time of purchase.
A lot of our vehicles do come with two keys, but we can only guarantee that each car has at least one. If the car has two keys, we’ll provide both.Because keys can occasionally be misplaced or damaged during transport or preparation, we can only confirm the exact number at the point of test drive. To secure your car for a test drive, simply find it on our website and book with a refundable deposit.
All electric cars use manufacturer-made batteries that are designed to last many years. Modern electric car batteries are carefully managed with cooling systems and safety margins, so they usually last for the lifetime of the car. We don’t provide battery health reports ourselves, so for the most up-to-date details on battery health or warranty cover, please check directly with the manufacturer.
You’ll need to bring your driving licence. If you’re part exchanging, please also bring your V5, service documents, and spare key. If you’re part exchanging and have a private plate, please refer to this FAQ about part exchanging with a private plate
