1996 Fiat Brava SX review from Lebanon
"Good looking, bur poor build quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
All four door knobs wore off. Will cost almost $200 to replace (this seems a common problem in Brava's)
Color fades and paint is easily chipped.
Head-unit is poor quality and very difficult to replace.
General comments?
Overall, the car is a very nice drive, almost like a sports car.
It also looks good, unlike off-the-mill hatches.
The main downfall is the poor build quality.
