Fiat 500 2015 - pictures

The facelifted 500 retains its retro looks, ensuring it remains popular with buyers. 

The dinky Fiat can be expensive to buy in higher-spec models. 

The Fiat's interior is classy and has some nice touches such as the dashboard painted in the same colour as the exterior. 

Despite the classy look of the interior some of the trimmings and materials are flimsy and cheap. The 2015 facelift has not helped this either. 

The steering wheel is very retro and appealing and for the first time the dashboard inculdes a glovebox lid. 

The 500 now gets aux-input and USB slots as standard, although the CD player is no longer available as standard. Fiat's UConnect touchscreen infotainment system is in its place.

Buyers can choose from many customisation options for the interior. 

The 2015 facelift gives the front of the 500 a chrome strip and larger LED daytime running lights. 

The rear of the car gets some attention too, with Fiat fitting new ring-shaped light clusters. 

The 500 isn't the best to drive, but it's engaging on short in-town trips.

Standard cars get a five-speed transmission as standard, but the higher spec 1.3-litre multijet gets a six-speed manual. 

The ride in the 500 is softer than the MINI, but there is quite a lot of body roll. 

The TwinAir 875cc engine is great - it's our choice of petrol.
