Great driving position and handling (considering is based on a Tipo).

Thank God I bought it from a main dealer with warranty - only kept for 8 months and sold it after the cam belt snapped (repaired under warranty), but a fair few other faults in the same time.

Lovely car to look at, even though it's a Fiat.

Not too bad. Even the back seats are usable and the boot can fit a fair amount in.
