Less than a month after its launch on our shores, the 500 is already sold out. The initial 2008 quota, 4,500 units, has been entirely sold since its introduction on January 21st.
Thanks to a successful campaign, Fiat UK has emptied its showrooms and from now on, you will have to wait six months between the time you sign the order and the time you get the car delivered. Will Mini sell more vehicles? Nothing is certain as the price difference between both cars is high enough to be patient and wait for your little Fiat.
Nevertheless, Fiat has to solve its production capacity limitation as soon as possible. At a time when cars are designed and considered like Kleenex, Fiat might not be able to sell the 500 by the time it increases its production. The 500 might not be fashionable anymore.
