On the road
Driving
Feels like you're going faster than you are. Rolls a bit in corners. My husband thinks he is in a go-kart when he drives, so for him it is a bit of fun every now and then.
Performance
Another 40bhp and I'd be laughin'.

Living with it
Reliability
Minor problems magnified by shoddy dealership service. Nothing major so far.
Image
Abarth kit adds a little something and the interior is more interesting then a lot of cars these days.
Comfort
Front seats very comfortable although the driver does feel they are slightly twisted. Not much back legroom, but it just means you don't have to give everyone a lift!
-
Security and Service
Security
Broken into twice for the radio and speakers. Don't feel it is the sort of car you would nick for a joyride but has immobiliser.
Service
Incompetant, rude, indifferent, unhelpful. Dealership managed to cause more damage to the car when it was taken for repair after a break in then the original problem it went in for. A shame because the car itself isn't that bad.
