Replacing disk pads - (150 eur)
Exhauster soft hub replacement needed.
Recalibration of a tachometer just after purchase.
Mine was maintenanced by some jerks of unknow origin, who practically desacrated every part of the car.
I'v bought this car due to i'ts (her?) very sporty and sexy exterior and interior, but I never imagined, that it can be so poorly built.
Yes, it looks like a ferrari, but with a classic built quality of a Fiat ~ poor&bad.
After spending about 1k euros and 2 month in a garage, car was restored to the nearly prefect condition.
Nice, head turning, look. Perfect acceleration and torque for a 2.0 without a turbo. Cheap spare parts (mechanics) - can be taken from other Fiats, but VERY (!) expensive bodyparts.
Do you not think that the car's problems stem from the way the car has been maintained? These cars are generally reliable if looked after. I have owned mine for quite a while and although it is expensive to maintain it has been reliable.
I think that your ownership problems arise from poor servicing
I was surprised at how reliable my coupe is.
