Possible Face of the Mk2?
« on: February 02, 2012, 11:57:17 AM »
Look at this closely guys as this may show some indication of what the face of the mk2 500 may have in store..

In my experience id say apart from the a pillar treatment and possibly the front arch treatment this will be very similar to the production Mk2

Obviously the rear will be different!

Look at the headlamps and lower bumper looks like its taken some q's from the current a500

Interesting me thinks

I know!... Unfrotunately i think it will go alot chunkier due to new pedestrian safety zones they have to meet!... They now need 150mm clearance from the engine to the a surface of the bonnet hense it being so tall!

Im really chuffed i have a mk one!

I think ill be keeping hold of mine for a long long time! the first one is always the best!

There's always new regs. No excuse for vomiting over the paper though. In fact I could vomit prettier than that.

Thats the 5 door L0 built on a Punto platform, that is going to run alongside the 500 right? , not what the 500 is going to become.
