2001 Fiat Seicento SX review from UK and Ireland
"Not reliable enough, but still fun to drive"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Key code immobiliser fault - have to use emergency start up procedure to get it to start, taking an extra 2 minutes, which is not practical!
Faulty fuel pump, replaced under warranty, but problem not spotted on 2 occasions.
Poor build quality.
General comments?
Nippy round town and power assisted steering makes parking easy.
Bright and cute inside, but does feel a bit cheap (it was!).
