They were just to small my first ride in the back of a Fiat 500 my foot was trapped under the front seat for some miles even after asking the front seat passenger to lift the seat so I could rearrange my feet! Some years later I had a test drive in a Fiat 126 same problem no room even as a driver for the size nines. OK I did own two Fiat 127 cars which I liked. Also two Citroen 2CV which had 600cc engines.
These original Fiat 500 and 600 meant one thing at that time. TROUBLE! BIG TIME!
these cars were so troublesome they spent more time with the mechanic than with the owner, they were nothing but junk, over heating, trouble starting, bad brakes, bad engine to name a few.
My dad had one of these; he bought a 1957 model in 1972 from Trapp Motors, in New Westminster, BC. It cost a whole $50, and he used it to go to and from work.
One time, he and my uncle went hunting, and he took the Fiat with him in case his pick-up got stuck. The Fiat fit perfectly inside the truck box, and the two of them put it in there by lifting up the front end, putting the wheels on the tailgate, and they then lifted the back end to slide it in the truck.
ヨーロッパを旅行したことがある方は、よく見たと思います。ご年配のご夫婦や若い恋人たちが歴史を感じさせる古い街並みをこの車で走っていました。町の景観ともぴったりですね。外観はとても個性的で素敵なデザインであり、内装は簡素ながらもおしゃれな洗練されたものを感じます。一言で言ってイタリアのファッションや文化を感じさせる車です。
日本車メーカーは電子制御技術ばかりでなく、このイタリアの車づくりの感性に学ぶべきことはたくさんあるでしょう。フィアット500がたくさん車を連ねて町を走る様子は、まさに壮観! worldcarfansさん、素晴らしい映像をありがとう。
