Stilo Hello. Newbie with a Stilo!

[Edwardo85]

Hello Fiat Forum,

I've recently got myself a lovely Fiat Stillo Active+, which has prompted me to lurk on here a few times looking at things.

Genuinely a Fiat fan. Growing up my mom had a Panda, Uno & Tipo at different points. I loved the look of the Coupe, I may even have one someday.

Anyhow my Stilo is an 04 plate in Metallic Black, with about 35000 miles on & one previous owner. My previous car was an N reg Micra which had NOTHING on it....But at the same time meant it was ridiculously easy to fix. But I am loving the more modern features of my Stilo. Much more comfortable and civilised. I drive a van all week so couldn't justify going crazy on a new car. But I've long wanted a Stilo....This one came up & I thought the cost was reasonable. Although it does have a couple of niggles that the dealer needs to address.

I'll be about asking questions. Hopefully you all don't mind

Hi Edwardo85 as a fella stilo owner I gotto agree the reason I bought mine is cus of the looks. Have you any plans for your car and any pics of it

Hello AJ80,

I can put some pics up later on, none on my mac atm. I only have minor plans for it really. Upgrading the stereo to a Sony head, sorting out some minor scratches and a rust patch on the lip of the rear window and refurbishing the alloys. The dealer needs to address the clutch though. I'm not happy. He's already had it back once and said it just needed adjusting...but I've had it serviced and looked over since by someone I trust...who said the clutch is worn and needs replacing. Other then that I'm happy with my car. Have you done much to your Stilo?

Kanewilsonjr hello to you as well. What have you got?

I did have a look last night .Like the work on the rims . I personally wouldn't do my lights like that , but everyone has different tastes . My days of dreaming of wild car mods are gone . I'm 30 and too old to aspire to feature in max power lol ?
