WHEN Fiat launched the striking new 500 Pink in January, the big question was: could it ever top that? And the answer is yes – with the convertible 500C Pink.
Even more limited than the hatchback version – just 300 examples will be available in the UK compared with 500 of the hatchbacks – the 500C Pink adds a stylish new twist to the chic supermini.
Fiat says the 500C Pink will appeal mainly to people wishing to stand out from the crowd – while enjoying fresh air motoring and I think it’s fair to say it will be one for the women.
With an on the road price of £13,500 – the 500C Pink costs just £1,200 more than a regular 1.2 Pop convertible, yet includes £1,870 worth of extra equipment.
“We reacted to customers’ requests earlier this year when we gave them the 500 Pink, and I believe we will find a new group of fans with the 500C version of this limited edition car,” says Elena Bernardelli, from Fiat.
