1996 Fiat Brava S review from UK and Ireland
"Never buy a second hand one with 70K miles on it. The cam belt will blow the engine"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Tie rod.
Rubber in suspension.
Cam belt blew at 84000 miles.
Blew engine.
Wiper washer broken.
Back indicator light pops out causing quick flashing of the indicators.
Rust after 2 years old where the boot closes.
General comments?
The cam belts should come with a health warning.
