Any thoughts on Stilos?

[patrick]

Just seen these two stilos for sale on e-bay, both with a buy it now price. I know stilos didnt really sell very well, and obviously a lot depends on the state of the car, but these two do seem pretty cheap

They seem in really good condition but I also dont like 5 door cars

Fiat Bravo JTD

Personally wouldnt touch a stilo, i have friends that have had stilos and then had no end o problems, one even had their car returned to fiat because the airbag fired as they were driving down the motorway, ive never heard any good press on the stilo, 3 door looks **** hot, but i personaly wouldnt bother!

Hmmmmm, should I really answer the question?

If you want my opinions of the Stilo see the first ever BOOzine Sir. I think you'll find that it's NOT a car I would recommend.

How about this one:

Its cheaper than both of the ones you listed and my parents are selling it.
It's a good car, and they've never had any problems with it.

I have a Stilo and still kept my faithful Bravo. Both are in fine shape, Bravo now on 105k miles and never been to a dealer, Stilo has been no trouble at all and is going along the same lines.

They're bristling with electronic gadgets so if you remind yourself that it's like your own computer, sometimes when you start it up you get some weird messages and have to reboot ie restart.

Also you know what happens if you run your computer on a dodgy power supply so you need to make sure the battery is good

The 5dr is Pug Ugly, but the 3dr isn't too bad. As for the 2.4; what a piece of kak.

Fiat need to buck their ideas up if this is the best offerng they can do for the UK market in the highly competive "medium car" bracket.

They certainly dont sell well. I wonder why?

Mind you, Alfa 145's didn't sell well, but I love them!

One man's meat, another man's poison?

Could someone send me a copy of the boozine please?
