2003 Fiat Seicento Sporting review from UK and Ireland
"Italian pedigree with English charm"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Front shock absorbers leaking.
Throttle body needed changing due to revs sticking.
Annoying creaking sounds when handbrake is engaged.
General comments?
Overall I would say that this car is good looking, quick, good on fuel and sounds good, I love the rasp noise from the engine when you floor it.
Easy to drive and park thanks to the clever power steering system.
Very comfortable to drive.
Nice interior.
Love the front fogs on the sporty front grille.
The shocks and throttle body were all replaced free of charge under warranty, with excellent customer services from Fiat.
