Fiat Seicento Sporting 3d (2001/Y) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Great value for money due to depreciation.
Costs
The only thing I had to pay for with this car is consumables and servicing. Needs little maintenance.

On the road
Driving
Comfortable ride and easy steering. Slight understeer in the wet though.
Performance
Very nippy through the lower gears. Suffers past 60mph though. Benefits a lot from an induction kit and/ or performance exhaust to boost torque in these areas where it lacks.
-
Living with it
Reliability
Never rang the AA or had a tow since I got this car
Image
Looks and appeal are great and also greatly enhanced with the Abarth sports kit which adds a spoiler, logos, and 14' spokes wheels. Stylish official accessories widely available too.
Comfort
I am 6ft 3ins and I regularly drive 300 miles in mine at a time and don't have any issues. The back is comfortable, but probably not if somebody tall is sat in front of you.

Security and Service
Security
Immobiliser as standard fitted. Cat 1 upgrades are very cheap for this car though.
Service
The only thing that has let me down is the dealer. Perry let down on promises and take ages to sort out issues, if they do sort them out.
