1994 Fiat Tipo review from UK and Ireland
"For the love of god, don't buy a Fiat"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch wore out at 63,000 miles.
Rear wind screen wiper motor seized up.
Car stalls intermittently when hot - needed new temperature sensors and throttle control.
Oil leaks from the rocker gasket and in the injection system.
General comments?
Comfortable, spacious car.
However very poor electrics and extremely poor running at lower revs.
Major headache having to repair it constantly when I only bought it under twelve months ago.
