Braving Storm Dennis In A Fiat 500 Rockstar! POV Review

[@slapheadone1]

My niece has a 1.2 500 lounge, she is a very petite young lady and loves her car. But depression is horrendous, something new buyers might like to take into account. Your review was excellent and on point, and as much power as harnessed children might be a new benchmark of power description🙂

Thanks for the positive feedback John, and thanks for watching!

POV reviews, in my opinion, are where a reviewer's skills really shine. No cinematography to make things look fancier than other reviews, and it's obvious to see when a video's been excessively cut or edited. One needs to get his point across as well as possible, avoid messing things up and keep the viewer engaged. You've ticked all three boxes, which is pretty good for your first POV review. I'd like to see more of them. I do agree that non-POV reviews are more cinematic, aesthetically pleasing, creative and harder to make. However, I always get the feeling that I can easily go to any manufacturer's official website if all I want to see is nicely taken shots of a car alone. As a small side note, I wonder if you can stabilize your footage a bit more. I've noticed that there's a lot of shakiness in the camera that I don't see on other POV videos.

[@CarObsession]

Hello mate, thanks for the positive comments, and also for giving me a different perspective on POV reviews. In regard to the shakiness, my GoPro does have stabilisation so I think that's just where I'm moving my head too much to be honest, I gesticulate quite a bit when I'm talking, so that's probably why 🤣

[@thearousedeunuch]

@@CarObsession You're welcome. Yeah, that might be the problem. A bit of testing should do the trick. Still, not bad at all for your first POV review. I tried jerry rigging my phone to my face to record a POV of my own, and the footage had a 15 degree angle to one side. Good stuff.

[@Sherlock-py2hh]

About the same amount of power as harnessed children. A classy line. :)

The 1.2 is great when combined with the dualogic transmission. Fiat stoped fitting the dualogic to the 0.9 twinair sadly. But the 1.2 is more than capable of surviving in the city and motorway speeds. I have a 1.2 rockstar dualogic and it’s sport body kit is basically a sport but with digital dash.

If it goes wrong ... can be very expensive

[@rupert1690]

Got my one as my first car, does me well

[@princemwamilee86]

Hopping to get one hopefully! But it’s gonna be a 2013 model

I'm considering buying one of these. I currently own a Ford Ka 2015 Titanium, it's a smashing wee car for an old guy like me. However, I cannot fit a towbar to it (it's not rated to tow). I want to get a small Halfords trailer to take my garden waste to the council dump and the Fiat 500 is rated to tow. With the trailer I could also have a convenient place for my camping gear. What is your thoughts please?

[@CarObsession]

I'll be honest, I'd never even considered a 500 for towing LOL. Thanks for watching.

[@willewinky6527]

I've just checked it's braked towing capacity. Apparently it's 800kg braked and 400kg unbraked for towing.

[@Vasillone94]

there is an error in the description, the twin air engine is a two cylinder engine and not three as you wrote.

[@CarObsession]

Ah yes, well spotted Vasil! Thanks for letting me know, and thanks for watching.

[@Vasillone94]

@@CarObsession no problem bro, stay safe!

[@TheLondonCarScene]

Good review mate. Dont think I would pay that much for it though 😂

[@CarObsession]

Cheers mate!

[@raymondhunt6109]

Ray Hunt If you shop around you can get an almost new one for around £11000

[@rcs.tf89]

are they good on motorways?

[@CarObsession]

Hi there, thanks for watching. It's fine, so long as the car isn't fully laden, I think it would feel a bit gutless if the car is full of passengers and luggage To be fair, though, the 500 wasn't built with lots of motorway driving in mind.

[@gemmavendetta9245]

Snacks are important. :D

[@David_JA_Noble]

Rear seats fit adults ... 5'10" no problem. IMHO

[@CarObsession]

They may fit there, but would they want to say there for a prolonged amount of time 🤷‍♂️

[@colinmorrison1507]

I'd have it if it came with groupies!!!
