Reliability
Good. Coils x2, downpipe in 4 years. Never failed to start.
Image
Underrated. Looking dated, but who cares!
Comfort
Very good room for getting 4 adults in. Seats good support. Leans in bends. Smooth on open roads.

Security and Service
Security
Standard central locking - enough. Who wants to steal a Fiat 1100?!
Service
As all dealers, fairly expensive. But did rear brake mod FOC - car was 9 years old!
