looking to buy this little number for one of my daughters..fiat seicento sport.Never even noticed they exsisted before today:wack: so my question is "are they any good and what faults do they have" before i hand over my money.its a 98 and has the 1.1 injection motor

fiat - lots of electrical problems:rofl:

I used to have a fiat stilo, things that happened to that where constant passenger airbag failure lights coming on, failed brake switch, seized rear passenger caliper occasionally would come up saying engine fault stop car aswell. Think that all happened in a period of about 20months. I noticed on inspections the airbag failure was due to the clips not being able to stay connected, so a firm couple of tie wraps around it held it in place.

 

IMO i wouldnt buy that as its tiny, fair enough its all fuel efficient and cheap to run and buy but they way i think on it is, what if it was a bad crash..doesnt look like it would hold its own.

hmmmmmm could be right over the crashing thingy:confused:

I had 2 puntos and never had any problems.

 

The seicento is a nice little car imo, my mate used to have one, he never had any problems apart from us taking the piss out of him.
