1996 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting review from UK and Ireland
"The best in the market for everything"
General comments?
The car is a legend. I have just bought one and I have to say that it exceeded all of my expectations. The Sporting does do well over 100mph, no matter what all of the others say. And the car takes a lot of gyp from people, and from all of the things I have heard about the slow, uncomfortable car - I love it.
It holds the corners well, it has a lovely interior, it has great performance and is so ahead of its rivals in that category.
Also have I mentioned the fact that it sounds like a mini Ferrari when it is given some welly (with the quiet whine when the throttle is floored).
I absoloutely love the car and would want nothing else instead as my first. A bargain at £800 in mint condition broom yellow.
Sam.
