Fiat Seicento (1998 - 2004) Suite 3d Owner Review

Suite 3d
Fiat 600

Want to know everything there is to know about this car?

In their own words

The car is nippy but not too powerful. The car is very light thus handles very nicely and turns of the wheel are very responsive. Watching crash tests is worrying because the car crumples like a tin can, but chances are you won't crash (hopefully!). Not much of a problem getting up hills, although you might have to drop into 4th sometimes. It is the easiest thing to park you'll ever own as it is so small! That being said, the interior is nice and roomy at the front for such a small car - I'm 6 foot and driving it is no problem. However, the back of the car is tiny and you will struggle to fit more than 1 taller person in although there's 3 seats back there! The boot is also relatively small and you will struggle to fit a load of shopping in there say...

How reliable do you find the car?

I had serious problems with the fuel pump but we believe that was due to the previous owner, not the car itself. Furthermore, my gearbox is very stiff going into 1st and 2nd which is a bit of a problem.
