Fiat Bravo 1.8 HLX 3d (1996/N) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

Economy
Value
When I bought the car I paid very good money for my car. Today the market value for a standard HLX I feel is very poor. People buying a HLX today are picking up extremely good bargains.
Costs
Running the car is of good value; if you drive sensibly fuel can last for ever, but if driven hard fuel can be lost faster.

Driving
With after-market suspension systems, exhuast system, superchip, induction kit and 17 inch alloys, the car becomes fast and fun to drive. At a recoredd 175bhp, the car keeps up and also can overtake a number of new special editioned manufactured cars.
Performance
As stated before, with after market goods the car can perform extremly well; it can keep up and leave the other manufactured cars behind for dust.

Living with it
Reliability
Starts every day and has never let me down since I have owned her.
Image
With subtle after-market changes, this car looks executive and amazing. With the right colour and the right changes, you can park your car next to a Bentley or Porshe and still feel proud of what you own.
Comfort
The car is very comfortable, the full electrics pack is neat and smart. The cabin is also very good base to instal an ice system.

Security and Service
Security
Very good alarm system. Makes me proud to be an owner of the car.
Service
If parts for the car are not in stock, you are going to have to wait for a very long time to recieve your parts.
