1991 Fiat Tipo S review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The car had a problem which arose a week after I bought it and lasted for the full year on and off that I had it. The car would go completely dead, electrics and starting, everything was tried to cure it, from de-icing the carb to re-wiring the whole car but to no avail. The speedo also packed up just for good measure. The only redeeming factor was the appearance, it was black with nice alloys. I bought it for £1950 and by some fluke sold it to a complete mug after a year for £1900!
General comments?
Don't bother. I forgot to mention that the syncro in 2nd was also knackered.
Too slow in 1400 form as well.
