Road test: Fiat 500 Colour Therapy

James Batchelor

Fiat has created a very groovy version of its 500 which celebrates the 1970s. Is it any good?

What is it?

It's very simple really – the oh so retro Fiat 500 which normally evokes a happy 1960s, has been shoved into the seventies to celebrate all that was good about that flared-trouser era. So 500 Colour Therapy models get groovy detailing such as white wing mirrors, a white aerial, natty little white and chrome wheel trims and a poolball gearknob. 500 Colour Therapy cars also come with special ignition key covers, and come in a 1970s range of colours: New Age Cream, Countrypolitan Yellow, Pasodoble Red, Volare Blue, and Tech House Grey. You can have the Colour Therapy as a 500 or as a 500C convertible.
