On the road
Driving
Excellent handling. All I've done is uprate the front shocks and have wider alloys and tyres put on, but it drives very quick round corners. Can oversteer when braking into a corner.
Performance
I've had 11.5 seconds to 60 out of it with only a K&N induction kit. Not quick, but cornering ability makes up for it.

Living with it
Reliability
Good when it wants to be. Sometimes only starts second time.
Image
Nice looking car. The look won't date and is set off with a nice set of alloys.
Comfort
Ok. Nothing special. Wouldn't complain, though.

Security and Service
Security
Remote alarm/immobiliser is good.
Service
I've only used Fiat once, but I don't think I will again.

Engine
Good strong engine. Sounds great with an induction kit.
Other
Rear swinging arms are duff! Brake system all corroded at the rear. Brakes were never the forte, but a set of EBC pads are a good purchase.

No
Did you buy from the same manufacturer again?
Yes
