1993 Fiat Uno ie fire review from UK and Ireland

"Unreliable best to avoid at all cost"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Brake pipe rusty.

Play in steering rack.

Starter motor noisy.

Starting problems.

Would occasionally run on 3 cylinders.

Clutch required at 36000.

Head gasket blew at 36000.

Gearbox whines.

Brake master cylinder x3.

Engine whines.

Speedo noisy.

Camshaft cover leaks oil.

Suspension knock.

Rust.

Plus everything else what I can’t remember.

General comments?

I brought this car for £365 with a full service history and all old MOT's, so I know the mileage is genuine.

This was my first car and I wish that I had waited and got a Rover Metro instead.

Every few days something else would go wrong with it.

The interior is cheap and the seats gave me foot and back ache.

The car doesn’t handle well, as you have to slow down a lot for corners.

The handbrake is rubbish like all small Fiats I eventually gave up using the handbrake and just left it in gear.

Gutless above 30mph.

Bolts are of poor quality.

Ran poor when cold.

At one point I worked out my mpg and it was 28, I get 35 out of the metro I replaced this with, which has a bigger engine.
