2001 Fiat Marea HLX review from UK and Ireland
"One the best used car bargains on the market"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong with it so far.
General comments?
The Marea has exceeded all my expectations, it handles town driving like a small car and long trips like the big car it is. I've driven to Cornwall and back in a day on one tank of petrol so fuel economy wasn't a problem.
The interior is well appointed with nearly electric everything, much better than my old car. It can take myself and three friends plus all our fishing gear with ease and still doesn't feel cramped or closed in.
I picked this up for £7000, nearly half the original selling price and only a year old, if there's a better bargain around I'd like to see it!
