After my first car which was a vw beetle(the old one ) ive pretty much only ever had fords so i was just wondering how fiats are in terms of servicing and parts etc?
I ask as im looking to get a new car and the fiat stilo has really caught my eye, However after being used to paying next to nothing for new exhausts etc on my ford i dont want to be too shocked when its time on my new car

Also anybody got any opinions on the new Stilo, Or indeed a recommendation for another fiat model?
Thanks

your gonna want to have a look at the multiple threads in the stilo catagory - a lot of people aren't happy

I got my first Fiat yesterday. It's a 1.8 Stilo Dynamic. I'm reasonably impressed, but the interior build quality is iffy. I've had loads of Fords (xr3, xr3, rs turbo, 1.8 Si mk7, mondy)and was after a 2.0 Focus. For the price of a 2 or even 3 year old one, I've got a brand new Stilo with the same power. There's loads of handy features, although the Focus is on another level as a drivers car.
I'd probably recommend the Stilo, if you get a good deal (like I think I did)but I've only done 90 miles!
I've no idea how I'll feel after finding out the price of parts, servicing etc...
