1998 Fiat Barchetta LE review from UK and Ireland
"Top rate styling, but needs more speed"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had nothing go wrong with the car as of yet. This is a true 60's icon sportster uprated for the 90's.
General comments?
Compared to the MGF & MX5, this is a leader. The styling is first class and with an engine that can be tweaked up to 290 bhp it's great.
