1998 Fiat Brava SX review from UK and Ireland
"All in all it's a cheap car with a huge boot for its class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought this car really cheaply and the only thing that I had to replace was a door spring on the driver door and some HT leads off the spark plugs which didn't cost very much. A lot of water gets onto the engine and I have to clean around the spark plugs often if the weather is bad.
General comments?
Parts are very cheap and the cars can be bought really cheaply if you look around.
If you get a well looked after brava it won't give you much trouble.
Performance is OK for a 1.4 but if you put the foot down you get an OK response.
I really like the style of the car apart from the back.
