Monaghan & Sons made the winning bid for the limited edition Fiat 500 lounge model after a ten-day nationwide auction. The auction concluded amid a frenzy of last minute bidding both on line and from guests at the glamorous Fiat 500 launch party in Dublin.

The limited edition Fiat 500 is number 279 of only 500 worldwide. The funky white pearlescent Fiat 500 is available to view at Monaghan & Sons’, Tuam Road, Fiat showrooms.

Developed by the Fiat Style Centre and manufactured in the plant in Tychy (Poland), the new 500 is a three-door model with very compact measurements. It is 355 cm long, 165 cm wide, 149 cm tall and has a wheelbase of 230 cm.

The car is extremely entertaining to drive, due to its three engines: a 75 bhp 1.3 16v Multijet turbodiesel unit and two petrol engines, the 69 bhp 1.2 8v and the 100 bhp 1.4 16v, all of which are available with five or six speed mechanical gearboxes. The Fiat 500 is available to test drive today at Monaghan & Sons Ltd, Tuam Road, Galway.
