General comments?
This car is an absolute joke. I have had nothing, but hassle with this excuse for a car.
If it wasnt for me taking out a £200 warranty I worked out I would have had to spend about £2000 in repairs on this car.
If you are purchasing this car remember even though its cheap to buy the reliability is a bit questionable and never ever buy this car without taking out the warranty.
I will never ever buy a Fiat ever again.
The breakdown guy summed the Fiat Brava up when I got towed into the garage again one morning FIAT... stands for Fix It Again Tommorow...
