Fiat Bravo 2.0 20V HGT (154bhp) 3d (1999/T) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
You get a lot of car for your money used. Wouldn't buy new though.
Costs
Terrible economy (mid to low 20s). Tyre wear seems higher than other hothatches I've owned.
-
On the road
Driving
Ride good on motorway, but too much bodyroll and rock hard suspension means handling is poor except on very smooth roads.
Performance
Excellent on motorway, but no torque low down means difficulty keeping up with normal traffic in town, dire for hot hatch. Sounds great, though.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Fair. Small problems only, but reasonably frequent and expensive to fix.
Image
Fantastic looking car. Very mean-looking from front. Seems to enrage other drivers, even when driven sedately.
Comfort
Again, good on motorway. Long distance driving is its forte. Good sounding stereo stupidly designed.

Security and Service
Security
Excellent alarm and immobiliser.
