Engine fan on almost constantly. Dealer unable to source the problem so they make up excuses that they all do that. I asked for a courtesy car to test and it works fine and is also twice as quick as mine (same engine). ME THINKS SOMETHINGS WRONG!!
Do not buy a Fiat.
Dealers are crap.
Service is crap.
'nough said.
Air lock in the radiator causing overheating? See the other Abarth review for the same symptoms.
I have had my Punto HGT Abarth for a year now and I love her (my little Abby). Apart from a couple of small problems with window wipers and lights, I can truthfully say that it is excellent on road holding even in the wet, very responsive, very quick!, a definate head turner with its stunning looks (black looks much nicer than the yellow - sorry you yellow owners! plus the satellite navigation has been very useful and works brilliantly (no more maps hooray!)
The only criticism I have is that Fiat after-sales care is not all it should be. From what I can tell, the dealers are the same all over - shame though when the car is so great.
