On the road
Driving
This is my first car and boy, I have test driven loads & this beats them all, very quick although GTi's are a lot faster, but when you realise it ain't a GTi you realise it's rapid.
Performance
Great rid,e apart from a bit of a shifty gear change which you get used to very quickly.

Living with it
Reliability
Never had a problem with this car, would definitely stay with this manufacturer in the future!
Image
Looks good to me, but then like the Hyundai advert says, badges are for boy scouts, if it's a good car you want, Fiat is the one to have, if you ain't ashamed then you realise it's a great car to have!
Comfort
Comfortable, easily sits 5 very comfortably, v. spacious and for the amount of time you spend in the car it's comfortable enough. It's not a maybach, it's Fiat, if you want to be seated like a King then this ain't the choice for you, although i like it.

Security and Service
Security
Central locking and immobiliser, safe enough for me!
Service
I can only put 3 because it has not needed a service yet, but when it does i will be going to a local garage anyway as it is a lot cheaper and thats what i need being a student!
