1993 Fiat Tipo 16 valve review from UK and Ireland
"Fun to drive, but let down by poor quality"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Broke down 11 times in the space of 2 years.
Stereo stopped working and had to be replaced twice.
Interior was very fragile and easy to break.
Gearbox had to be replaced at 50,000 miles.
General comments?
Great to drive, spacious and comfortable, but let down by terrible build quality and reliability. Dealer backup was even worse.
