The front wheels needed to be tracked & balanced every 2000 miles.
The fit & finish is woeful, even at this money.
The paint is prone to scratches & some of it has flaked off.
The dealers are helpful in selling you the car & don't care less afterwards.
My car's sunroof has started to rust.
I replaced the factory fit stereo as it was pitiful with poor reception & two measly speakers.
This car is well equipped & surprisingly comfortable for the money.
It lacks street credibility & Fiat does have a poor name come resale time.
The handling is only OK. It's safe & easy to drive, but it rolls too much in corners.
The power steering is well weighted but vague.
The dash is well made & attractive.
The seats are supportive & very comfortable.
The gearbox & the brakes are only fit for the skip.
I really can't complain as it goes on the promise of petrol, has been comfortable & has never failed to complete its journey.
My wife also purchased a Fiat Seicento, but in early 2000. The sunroof has rusted and Fiat have advised me that it is our fault!?
I have sought advice and it is obvious that Fiat have not pretreated or cleaned the metal before the final paint job.
I am now thinking of taking further action against Fiat and I would be very interested to hear from anyone with any similar problems.
