1987 Fiat Uno 45 Sting review from Australia and New Zealand
"Economic town car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rust around the doors and around 45 symbol at the rear.
Needed new water pump at 60000 miles.
General comments?
An extremely reliable car, 60000 miles and very few things needed fixing.
Fuel economy is excellent, I've been getting up to 600km on one tank (30 litre tank) you can't go wrong here.
Lacks grunt, but will surprise you for the size of its motor, haven't met a 1000cc mini that'll beat it.
Body roll was excessive when cornering, but that was soon fixed by changing the springs to harder ones, now it corners like there is no corner.
