1989 Fiat 128 GLS 1.3

Summary:

A commercial low performance car

Faults:

The car is not a reliable car at all, anything can go wrong in anytime.

The gear system was faulty from the very first day that I got the car, it kept making strange sounds on first gear, and I heard that many other 128 cars have the same defect.

General Comments:

Merit of this car is that it's maintenance is very cheap specially in my country. You can build the car again with very reasonable money, but, drawback is that it's durability is very very bad.

1986 Fiat 128

Summary:

Use a taxi

Faults:

Well basically everything.

The engine gets hot too often.

There is something wrong with the gear box.

And yeah, the openings in the car. Like there is this hole located in front of the driver's feet, right before the brakes and the clutch. Man, I swear I had a little rat in the car once, the poor thing went inside the engine, and turning it on; SQUEAK, I could smell the BBQ.

General Comments:

I only bought it because I went bankrupt, otherwise I would never ride in it, and would never recommend it to ANYONE.

For god's sake, you cannot even travel with it. There is no AC, and it's too small.

1973 Fiat 128 1.1

Summary:

A car you can have forever

Faults:

Well many things to say as it's a 28 year old car. Mainly brakes, rust and steering.

General Comments:

It's a cheap car for its spare parts and repairing costs.

Sometimes its performance is good, especially in third gear. However, its spare parts, especially in Egypt, are not good and usually you've got to change the new parts faster than you imagine.
