Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
A lot of BHP for your money. Nothing else comes close.
Costs
Insurance is steep. Parts are expensive if bought from Fiat.

On the road
Driving
Superb handling. Very planted. I still grin when I sit behind the wheel.
Performance
Once off the line, performance is astonishing. You need to blip the throttle to spin up the turbo if you want a fast standing start.

Living with it
Reliability
I've had it 2 months and It's needed new oil cooler and pipes (£210) and now needs new exhaust manifold (£250ish). Prices are for parts only.
Image
Very stylish, but doesn't turn heads as much as some sportscars.
Comfort
Leather seats are fairly good, but don't support legs very well, nor grip your body when you 'make good progress'.

Security and Service
Security
No problems really. Central locking sometimes fails when really cold.
Service
Fiat garages are awful and my car will not be going near one.
