Economy
Value
It's not what it costs it's how useful it is! And this car is bloody useful!
Costs
40 plus mpg no probs. I have even done that figure towing a huge trailer tent!

On the road
Driving
Would be a five if it was a bit quicker. Talk to Nige at Angel tuning… 155bhp!
Performance
As standard, ok. See Nige at Angel Tuning if you really want to see one go!

Living with it
Reliability
Oh dear! www.multiplaowners.co.uk for the truth. It's a great car, truly good, but it needs a regular visit to the dealer to keep it that way!

You love it or you hate it! Me… faults and all, I love it!
Comfort
Seats need more side support. Hard suspension to cope with six plus luggage is firm with one or two but it handles a treat… like a big car. It goes around corners like it's on rails!

Security and Service
Security
Alarm plus immobiliser. Plus of course its bad looks mean I don't expect it to be stolen!
Service
Look for a good dealer, expect no help from Fiat.

Computers, bloody computers. Give me an old SU carb any day, grease nipples and adjustable bits last longer in the end. Ask any old car enthusiast. Can you see modern cars being around in fourty years time?
