1995 Fiat Uno I.E.S review from Finland

Had to change the rear end of the exhaust pipe at 118000 kilometers.

The brake hoses had to be changed at 124000 kilometers.

It's not difficult to think why this car was one of the best selling European cars in the 1980s. First of all it has lots of space and enough head room. The seats are OK.

The Uno is a great car to drive even long distances. The steering is very "talkative" and the car goes just where you want it to go. It really feels like a much bigger car.

Handling is excellent though the steering is a bit on the slow side. Parking isn't that nice because the car doesn't have power steering. Thanks to its 1980s styling visibility is very good.

The 1.1 liter engine is OK. It's excellent in the city and when pushed hard it can also give enough performance to overtake bigger cars on the motorways. Fuel consumption is very low.

The car does show its age when compared to newer models. The engine is quite noisy and wind noise can be heard quite clearly when you drive over 80 km/h.

The S specification isn't very well equipped, but it's better than the very poor I.E.

Generally I like my car very much, it's in good condition, fun to drive and cheap to maintain. What else can you ask for?
