1960 Fiat 600 D review from UK and Ireland
"A small car with style"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The seats have started to wear badly making the journey not so comfortable.
Rust seems to creep in everywhere I have had to replace some panels and do some welding to the underside of the car.
I have had some minor electrical faults in 1997.
The starter motor has been replaced twice once in 1990 and again in 1996.
Engine has needed reconditioning once in 1983.
I had to replace the radiator in 1986 after the car overheated.
Clutch went in 1992.
General comments?
This car is nice to drive and very economical despite all the problems I have had in the past.
The cabin is not all that comfortable, but it does look nice and so does the outside of the car.
It is designed for town usage and I suggest you don't use it as a high speed cruiser.
I would advice you to keep the car well serviced otherwise it will give you a lot of trouble.
