Err, did anyone else notice this?!

 

[Melanabb]

Hmmm. Interesting, I like the silhouette of the old 500 on it. Rest is so-so...

Well, thats kinda awkward, Ron Arad is the name of the known Israeli pilot that was classified as missing in action since October 1986.
what a weird name to choose!

the car looks awesome btw

Cult with Gucci spec wheels..?

Not bad.. but dunno why'd they name it after an Isreali fighter pilot, come architect.

At first I was like... and then I was like :yuck:

Saw one of these parked outside my local dealer this evening. The sticker on the windscreen said £16000!!!! WTF?

 

[liav24]

Well,
where i live they sell the simplest version (1.2, iron wheels, no sunroof, barely a driving wheel) in no less than 13270£, if you want to go for the S version say goodbye to 18480£, and an Abarth will cost you about 30000£

eh, I don't see the point. They took a perfectly fine black 500 and painted some white lines on its sides. And that's supposed to be a designer item?

Why mess with a good thing, I say.

 

[liav24]

Yeah, the funny part you can do it by yourself

 

[auditt]

Seen one in dealer,looks naff.

 

[500F]

That's very unique Fiat 500

Just having a nose on Vospers' website, and they have got 3 1.2 Ron Arad "Manager's Specials" available.

Obviously the list price of £16,000 was a bit optimistic They are now available for a mere snip at just £12,995.

I may be being sarcastic here of course...or am I?!

TBF if you wanted a lounge with a leather interior, climate, 16" wheels and fog lights that's probably cheaper than a standard lounge plus extras?
