You can hear the tires spinning, especially on rough surfaces.
Build quality is inadequate.
You can hear crackles from the dashboard.
It's the car for someone who wants a real sport car which is cheap. When you step on the gas pedal, you can hear the sonorous sound spread from the exhaust. It provokes you to climb to higher revs. The engine is sluggish at low revs, but when it reaches 3000rpm it wakes up and begins to rev fast, up to 7500.
Any given order to the gas pedal, results in power immediately. And you are not disturbed by any system like ABS, ESP, ASR..(etc)
I think that a FIAT TEMPRA is a cheap racing car. I own a Tempra 2.0 i.e. 16V TURBO (I insalled the turbo and the 16V) and now the car is having 240 HP and it is flying on the road!!!

I had a white Tempra Turbo Diesel Estate for two years and loved it. The digital readout instruments were novel at the time and disliked by some, but not by me. The speed was easy to see in a big red number above everything else. It was a lovely reliable car that was uncommon and distinctive. The only fault was a persistent rattle in the rear door that I was never able to cure. Otherwise- it went like a ferret up hills, accelerating past others struggling and panting. One advantage of diesels is the lack of wiring that much reduces ignition problems. Under the bonnet, it's all pipes!

I own a Tempra 2.0I 94' model and I"m looking for
an establishment where I can refurbish the car for
a reasonable price. Someone told me that the Turkish
manufacturer does. If this is correct, does anybody
know how to contact them or others who will do the job?
