1988 Fiat Uno Turbo review from Australia and New Zealand
"Rapid and economical"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I had to replace the clutch, but that is not really a fault.
The inlet manifold gasket was leaking and needed replacing.
Boost hose split.
The gearbox needs replacing, but if I didn't own it, it would be OK!
General comments?
This is a very fast, fun car to drive.
This is a very noisy and rattly car to drive. Its got a harsh ride.
Handles OK at best, but very predictable.
The brakes are adequate if good pads are used.
Its very economical for the performance it gives. Its very reliable.
Its easy to modify and the engine will last a long time, its very strong.
You have to be easy on the gearbox.
