You find me in Italy with a car for the week.

It was supposed to be a Fiat 500 or Equivalent.

As the eagle eyed will spot, it’s not a 500 or indeed any other kind of Fiat. It is therefore an Equivalent.

My neighbors just went to Ireland and had one with that weird dual-clutch auto and the tiny diesel. They hated it.

That looks alot like a Panda with a Citroen face stamped on, but I know that it isn’t.

It’s more of a Kia Soul or a Rondo sized car.

If it’s the one I’m thinking of, it’s an automated manual and therefore single clutch. I have one too:

It’s actually fine but if you’re used to a torque converter automatic you won’t know what’s going on because it pauses between gears just like a manual and you feel the clutch engaging as you move away, again just like a manual but if you’re coming from a background of no experience of any kind of mechanical transmission you will be surprised.

Tiny diesel is a matter of what you’re used to I suppose. I think it’s a 1.5 or thereabouts which is what you’d expect for a car like this. For comparison, the VW Passat is usually sold with a 1.6.

Pray tell, what kind of Citroen is this?

Citroen C3 Picasso. It’s a bit bigger than a Panda.

I can imagine some people being disappointed, recieving this instead of the “cute” 500. However you do have one of the only modern cars in the EU with orange tinted indicators up front.

Well, to be fair, they have a Chevrolet Silverado and a Jeep Grand Cherokee, so anything with less than six cylinders and a 3.0 liter displacement is considered tiny.

There is that, I suppose.

It also has cornering lights which come on as you steer.
