The Brits are loving the Fiat 500, with the little car recently managing to convince its 100,000th customer in the UK, with the milestone coming after four and a half years of market presence.
The carmaker’s British arm wants us to know that 80 percent of the sales were accounted for by models with the 1.2-liter petrol engine, while the 0.9-liter two-cylinder TwinAir unit, which arrived in 2010, covered 8 percent of the sales. In addition to that, 48 percent of the cars were purchased in the range-topping Lounge trim. As for the most popular colors, these are Bossanova white, Pasodoble red, Volare light blue and the metallic Crossover black
