1993 Fiat Cinquecento review from UK and Ireland
"A Nippy Italian Stallion"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The Brakes had to be replaced, the whole calipers on the front and the disc's and the brakes on the back also had to be replaced.
I also replaced the Exhaust with a Rage 5" Back box, and now it sounds like a Japanese Street Racer, and btw, this is the FIRST cinquecento ever, with a centred rage 5" Exhaust.
General comments?
I love this car. Although the paint has faded a bit, TCUT and autoglym are briging it back up nicely, and it is soon to get a Pearlecent Respray.
The car handles well too, but suffers from body roll. Nothing some Sports Springs can't solve.
