2014 Fiat Doblo Eleganza 1.6 Multi-jet diesel from UK and Ireland

Summary:

Surprisingly good

Faults:

Tyre pressure monitoring system won't work, sliding door a bit stiff, exhaust rattly, minor oil leak, and the A/C is a bit weaker now.

General Comments:

My 2014 Doblo has been a reliable enough practical vehicle.

Very very large inside, huge amounts of room. It's what you buy this type of vehicle for.

1.6 diesel is by no means fast, but 50 mpg is a sure thing most of the time. It's a bit noisy, but once warmed up it cruises smooth and quiet on motorway.

"Eleganza" is a great spec, lots of electrics and nice seats. Looks rather nice on the exterior as well with dark red paint and alloy wheels; most Doblos you see are a dull grey or white with wheel trims.

In short, it has been a decent cost effective car for family use. I had doubts about Fiat's reliability at first, but in five years there have been no breakdowns.

Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Don't Know
