2004 Fiat Stilo Dynamic review from UK and Ireland
"Love it to bit, just bought another one!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine fault warning lights came on at 13k, dealer said it's fine and they would reset at next service.
Had problems with front door locks not unlocking on both front doors. at 700 miles. Toke 3 attempts for dealer to sort.
Required front tyres at 16500 miles.
General comments?
I have an 2004 JTD Multi-wagon Dynamic with 18k miles (doesn't burn oil). full kit inc leather.
Tows big Hobby caravan, but must be careful with nose weight (look for max 50kg's).
Love it to bits and just traded for the same again take delivery next week.
Dealer allowing me to swap my MP3, CD Stack, roof bars, 4 mud flaps, tow-bar and front window deflectors over so saves on cost of options.
Nice to see cruse control is now std. as is split tailgate again.
I've dropped the leather as I only had so back seats slide & recline, but now this is also std. on cloth seats (needed this option as I have a hyd hoist to lift in electric wheelchair).
Managed to get 25% off rrp as well.
Great car, Above average dealer,
Recommend.
Previous car Subaru 2.5 AWD Auto. estate. A different class of car, but I love the Stilo MW as much and tows on motorway with as much torque.
Also look out for new Stilo II model end of 2006-2007 A must look at the Fiat Group Unofficial News website. A must to see what's coming up in the Fiat / Alfa camp
