1992 Fiat Tempra review from Sweden
"Underestimated"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Everything electric, except engine-related functions, went crazy once, probably due to earth fault. Cured itself by and by over a month. Most annoying. Quite funny, though.
Several smaller faults, some of the causing stand still, but surprisingly cheap to remedy.
Rear brakes needs frequent greasing.
General comments?
Mechanically reliable. Nice engine.
Surprisingly comfortable suspension (with Pirelli tyres), not so bumpy as comparable German cars.
Roomy, higher than most other cars.
I like the digital meter.
