2001 Fiat Palio ED review from Russia
"A very pleasing way to spend US$10k :)"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front brake discs were replaced by the dealer at ~11000km.
General comments?
Pretty attractive exterior. Comfortable interior. Performance is better than anybody expects from 1.2l engine, even with the air conditioning turned on.
Can't really judge on reliability yet, but first year and first 20,000km showed only one problem (see above).
