2001 Fiat Marea Weekend review from UK and Ireland
"An excellent choice for someone looking for a decent reliable estate car... with a bit of ooomph!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Very little has gone wrong with the car, apart from silly things like the boot catch sticking and things like that. Nothing that a bit of lubrication didn't cure.
General comments?
Such a fun car to drive. The Weekend is a large estate, and it is easy to forget that you are in an estate. The TD engine is amazingly powerful and really does feel like a sports car. Superb handling and excellent comfort.
We tow our caravan with ease, although getting the correct towbar was expensive, because of the drop down boot arrangement. A brink detachable towbar did the job well and looks great.
We love our Marea and would love to get a slightly newer one.
