(T) Can anything else go wrong????

Ok......
Stilo 1.6 Dynamic which I bought brand new in August 2003.
Have now done 13,000 miles.
Have had the following done ...
> New Clutch Master Cylinder - to cure squeak.
> New pedal cluster to cure clunk when turning left after a series of right turns.
> Gearbox out and new reverse gear cluster shaft and bearings - to cure notchy gear change and noisy box.
> Modification to track rod, reset wheel alignment etc. to cure the fact that the front tyres wore out after 12,000 miles and the car steers itself all over the road. £230 for new front tyres!
> New rubber thingies on the parcel shelf to stop it banging. Didnt work so I stole the rubber pads from a courtesy Punto and installed those. Now it's quiet.
> New rear speakers, as the originals rattled like **** for John Humphries - never mind masive attack!
> Major ****e with warning lights coming on and off for oil preassure - EDB - ASB. And one nasty when the whole dash went dead ..... no speedo or anything ....... accompanied by a "loose connection" message.
> High fuel consumtion ...... never better than 32mpg on a trip and 28 round town ..... and I am 56 and I drive like an old fart!!!
> Plus more rattles - grunts and squeaks than you can poke a stick at.

OK .......... Now my questions.
1 ..... Can anything else go wrong?
2 ..... Apart from the fact that I like the look of the car, can anyone tell me WHY I should ever buy another Fiat.

I was just a hairs bredth away from going the whole hog and buying an Arbath. Thank God I just wasted £9K

sorry to hear it m8. i think you have been unlucky. i had a 1.6 dynamic 3 door for two years without a single problem. i now have an abarth selespeed 3 door which i have had for 3 months, still no problems. think you got a friday afternoon special.

Youre just very unlucky. I know someone with an 02 reg 1.6 and hes had no probs whatsoever with it.

how can these new cars go so wrong

anyhow welcome to the forum
