Well title explains all.
What lies ahead is I hope continued reliability and strength. All my warranty issues were pretty minor and none vehicle stopping.
There is a little relief / freedom as well as now I'm free to maintain my vehicle myself. Live with this or that and do/fix this or that at my leisure.
Technical information these days with Fiat/Alfa is going to be an issue now that KeyLearn has been withdrawn and online tech info is expensive. Gone are the good old days of printed manuals and CDs. This is certainly no good for enthusiasts and could prove to be a real issue for a Fiat/Alfa post 2015 ever becoming a classic car.
I guess the European/EU/Manufactures 10 year support life (which many don't/can't achieve anyway and us little fish can't sue them) is going to be the best we can hope for.
Having read all the issues/problems of the 500X (especially in the Warranty thread I started) then I think the model is generally pretty reliable with the good old manual gearbox versions probably going to be the most reliable.
Compared to my Croma 2005 (which I had from new for 10 years) my 500X has been brilliant.
