2004 Fiat Stilo review from UK and Ireland
"Death trap"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
(Thursday 10th August 2006) The engine caught fire while the car was parked in our driveway. It had been sitting there unused for over a week while we were on holiday. We had not even been in the car since returning, it simply self combusted damaging the car beyond repair and causing extensive cosmetic damage to our new house.
General comments?
No problems up until the above incident.
