  • Economy

    Value

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Lost a lot on selling, had to sell due to poor component reliability!

    Costs

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Not bad as still under warranty, but I would hate to pay for all those faults!

  • On the road

    Driving

    3 out of 5 3.0

    Good to drive, but let down by over sensitive electric power steering.

    Performance

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Dangerous acceleration, leaving you facing oncoming vehicles! Sad, as I owned other Fiats with the same engine uncatalised, which performed much, much better.
