1992 Fiat Tipo 1.4ie review from Norway
"Low running cost, big space car"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
So far, so good. Nothing.
Some oil leaks from the gearbox due to wornout boots both sides.
Left side wiper front lights have been a little off and on.
General comments?
Very good space.
Very low running costs.
Petrol is very expensive in Norway... like everything else is. Average consumption pr.10 km is not much more than 0,55, even during these cold months like December.
Very good handling on Norwegian winter roads.
Fiat dealers in Norway have been a sad story, but now things are looking mutch better, since they joined up with Mitsubishi, Alfa Romeo and Daewoo. I agree... best FIAT ever.
