A friend bought the convertable model a year and a half ago to pull behind his Sprinter chassis MH. His wife thinks it's "cute" he likes the low weight for towing. We went to the Fiat dealership and drove one of the basic models and weren't too impressed. They are a little easier to enter and exit than our VW wagon but the road holding and feel fall far short of the VW's IMO. We put a lot of miles on the towd so road manners are important and weight isn't the only consideration. Not much out there new in the Fiat's weight class for sure and they do appeal to a lot of folks. It's always a compromise.
