Different garages & dealerships have different policies here. One
time, our car needed something or other done that meant it would be
gone for days and they gave us a brand new Fiat 500 with only 5 miles
on it to use for free! Boy, that was a fun car to drive around
(reminded us of the olden days when we could park the Spider anywhere)
and an excellent sales strategy on their part because I think we would
have bought it if we'd been in the frame of mind to be a two car
family again. If you want a city car that can seat 4 people with back
seats that flip down if you need to haul something, look at a Fiat
500L.
