Aaaaaaaaand so it's here - my new Stilo Multijet Sporting 150...It's only done 30k miles and I picked it up yesterday after p/xing my old JTD Dynamic so I thought I'd post up a few pics here for everyone to see!

Any recommendations for changes? I'm definitely thinking of getting the back 3 windows tinted. I am also thinking of going along to the Brooklands Auto Italia event at the end of April with it as I'm living in London at the min?

By the way, pics are where it is parked outside uni, if you're wondering why its practically on the path and apologies for the goon standing in the background of the last pic, thats my mate ha!

Let me know what you think!

Nice, probably the only other Stilo I'd consider getting other than a manual Abarth

Could always just get a set of the fitted window blinds instead of tinting. Cover the rear passenger and back windows but are removable. Cost something silly like £80 from Fiat, but seen them on eBay for £40 odd new (http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FIAT-STILO-3-...arts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item43a5d99adb). I managed to get a second hand set for £20

Nice car.

A Sporting 150 engine and gearbox in my Multiwagon would be nice. Maybe one day.

I had the fortune to pickup a set last week for 99p! Just need to work out how to get the back set to fit properly!

Nice tidy motor, same colour as mine too..and ive now been convinced to get the facelift grille too.

Nice

Think you're meant to get a clip for joining the two parts, though never got one with mine. Best way to fit is to just push them into the groove around the back window as much as possible. It's awkward but if you push it in enough, it should stay in place though there may still be an overlap between the two parts.

Consider yourself a very lucky man
Those particular Multijet 150 models are very rare and they are very envied :yuck:

Nice buy and look after it

Thanks - yeah really pleased. Apparently (although I'm sure all garages do this) it had 'a lot of interest'...but I kinda believe that - they said they nearly sold it the weekend before I gave them my offer but it all worked out in the end

Sweet car mate

Nice motor. I migt upgrade to one of these if I find the right one. These have 6 gears as well if i'm correct? If your thinking about back window tints on the car hv a look at a few of my pictures as we have same colour car (The best stilo colour ) Should help you make up your mind Got a few on my profile or im sure you can find the odd pic in some threads if you search.

I was waiting for almost a year...I originally wanted one of these when I first got my Dynamic JTD, but then I saw this and I had to get it! It was fairly near me and the price was pretty good...and it has only done 30k miles

Yeah it has 6 gears, which makes motorway driving SO easy...barely over 2k revs at 80mph, which is nice. I'll have a look at the pics and decide, though I take it you're pleased with your tint?

I am sure it is fast, very torque proud and dam quick....but if you ever have that beast remapped, the figures that can be achieved are really HOT, your looking at least 170+ and there could be more with a few more tweeks :devil:

Always drive sensibly , leave racing for a track......

I'd thought about a remap on my old Dynamic but hadn't even considered a remap for this! I don't know if it'd be worth it for all the problems I could end up having with insurance and MOT etc (judging on a thread I was reading about ECU scans beind introduced) and it's quick enough as it is IMO I'm only 21 after all!!

@ Andy90 - I'm looking to get the tints done in summer (when I can afford them ) so I'll post some pics up then so we can compare! What % tint you got on yours? I'm thinking about a 15% rather than the really dark 5% 'limo' tint...

Lovely car.
but then I would say that. Its exactly the same as mine. :slayer:

I got full tints on back 3 and the front are the legal limit. 30% or somthing along those lines, cant remember. Bearing in mind they come out the factory with a slight tint all ready. You can't see in the back at all unless u press your face against it

Judging on that, I think I'll go for one less than 'face pressing' tint
