FIAT STANDS FOR FUCK IT ANOTHER TAXI OR FIX IT AGAIN TOMOROW enuf said

lads let not be biased!!!

JTD engines are good(and fitted to some Vauxhalls too), just a shame about the rest of the car.

FIAT = Fix It Again Toni(and another variation on that which is not printable!)

my gradad has one, its pokey enough and gives 40+mpg and he isnt exactly the worlds most boring driver!

the only problem he has had with is one of the front springs snapping :shock:

still under warrantee tho!

Fiat? Pah!

There's nothing biased about it..they're shit end of

when my dad used to work at fiat there always two stilos with electric problems

Fiats are infamous for their crap electrics ^^^

true^^^, they do look awesome but they are not reliable

Hmm

To be honest it ain't a bad looking car, but that's the only good thing to say about it. There was a major chavved up blue one that used to go round Aberdeen. Was in like Max Flower or something, horrible car, although it was tuned to 200bhpish

I can see where your coming from but, the electrics in my polo and many others aren't something to shout about. How many mk4's and 5's have had problems with dodgey windows and window switches? and airbag warning lights and other things such as gearboxs? can't knock volkswagens they are solid built cars, an there was a time when there were 1 of the best but as for relability theres nothing to distinguish them from any of todays car manufacturers .The one thing volkswagen has over fiat is the depreciation rate, and i can safely say i'd never buy a new fiat!!

I'm really tempted by this one..

just look at the JDpower survey results and that will tell you every thing... my cousin and unclehad one each 1.2 and 1.9 but all they had was problems..
