Living with it
Reliability
A few minor problems all rectified by my dealer.
Image
Attracts lots of positive comments. People like to ask about car.
Comfort
Did 1000 miles in France recently. Seat cushions are a bit short. You slide in the seats when cornering.

Security and Service
Security
Detachable stereo front. Not the sort of car that attracts scumbags.
Service
Should have had a boot light as standard. Fiat paid for an hour's labour, the dealer paid for the rest.
