New BSM driving school car

Some of you might have heard that BSM are changing their driving school cars from the Vauxhall Corsa to the Fiat 500, well I've seen a few of them on the roads giving tuition, and took some photographs of what looks like a very trendy but maybe not so practical (as far as ADI's with families are concerned) car.



Many driving instructors have nicknamed it the BSM bubble car due to it's small cute look that looks like a half bubble. I know some of the present ADI's are not totally happy with the change (even considering giving up thier BSM franchise) to the new driving school vehicle especially when it is the only one used in the household (the car is quite small with not enough space in the rear for grown passengers and their luggage, and the weekly trip to the supermarket will be even less enjoyable as a family outing in the fiat 500.

All this should not however change the attitude of learner drivers to taking BSM driving lessons, in fact it might even lead more to changing camp, because it would look more easy to do driving test maneuvers in, and it would also be a good taking point in college or university students mess halls with a few bragging about how they are the first to learn to drive in one.

Did you know that the Fiat 500 orginally had a 500cc engine as its powerhouse. BSM driving school apprently will be saving a lot of money with this more enviromentally friendly green car, considering they used to go through 14,000 vauxhall corsas a year.
