2001 Fiat Seicento SX review from UK and Ireland
"A nippy little nipper"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing as yet (she says with her fingers crossed).
A bit worried by all the bad reviews, I know it's got a FIRE Engine (Fully Integrated Robotised Engine) and I think this means it was built by machines rather than men in overalls. A bit worried about what this could mean.
When I first bought it, I noticed it pulled slightly to the left - please be careful on test drives.
Check everything.
General comments?
Managed to get a good deal as I bought a 2001 model as 2002 models were due to be registered.
Like watching peoples faces as they smirk at me as they sit beside me at traffic lights - and the transformation as I pull away leaving them far, far behind.
Excellent 0-60, I am a biker through and through, but am finding my new Seic a total pleasure to drive!
