Fiat 500 star 2020

[Idonoghue]

Hi All I am new to fiat 500. I was always admiring them on the road but couldn't justify to buy one. I used to drive a vauxhall zafira and someone crashed into me 2 weeks ago. I decided to buy a fiat 500. I wanted to find out what is the difference between the fiat 500 star and lounge? I saw a fiat 500 star which I liked it has a 2020 plate number 1.2 petrol motor. Where i live we have some elevated hill area was just wondering if it would be okay with those...
I also wanted to find out if it doesn't come with instructions where can i get one especially for the touch screen radio.
Thank you all. Apologies if i look a bit stupid but it is all new for me.

Hi, and welcome

It will be a trim level

Lounge is middle "spec", some nice toys it not Everything

Star was a time limited thing..
EDIT: probably a POP Star..
So a Pop.. The Basic trim with some "extras"

Search it on here


I have a 2018 lounge model 500, same engine

They are very well established, but NOT very powerful (it is an old design)

But should last for years with basic servicing, unlike many modern engines


What engine was in your vauxhall?

I have the 1248cc turbo diesel like I drove in a Zafira, far more power than the 500

I had a 1.7turbo diesel in my zafira hence why I am worried .

The star does come with plenty of extras looks good spec plus it is young. Started to spend a lot on my zafira.. more and more things gone wrong with age... so hopefully i will fall in love with my fiat 500 like all the other people i talked to .
I only use my car in my town and very short journeys under 20 miles. So hopefully i will be happy with it.

Will need some getting used to. Will probably try the less hilly roads until i get it used to . My husband has a Renault clio also 1.2 motor, which i am okay driving so hoping my little Fiat will be just as easy.
