Hi,
Is the engine identical; the Fiat has the 1.3 Fiat Diesel?

No its not the Fiat is a 1.3 16v, where as the Citroen uses there own 1.4 8v
Thought so
Honest opinion of the 1.4 Geminifm?
I found is gutless, a 160mile round trip became a chore and having to watch out for inclines. The 1.3 turbo is a better engine but the 1.6 diesel would be 10x better

Welcome Geminifm
Hope you enjoy your Nemo as much as I am enjoying my Qubo. I have found the power OK for my needs, I have no issues keeping up with traffic, but then again I am a bit boring and do stick to national speed limits. Good luck!

Only had it just over a week. Its ok, but it aint no speed machine, I find i have to change down quite a bit, i think it would be better being a 16v instead of a 8v, i find it is noisy compared to the fiat MJ. But it suits my needs! Needed a bigger car for because having a small car with a little one was becoming a pain, because once the pushchair was in the boot had no where for anything else.
I agree they should put the 1.6 in them as they would be much better and i bet they would sell more.
Not exactly relevant, but sort of; I just read a review of the Dacia Duster, which has the Renault 1.5 Diesel. It got a very good review from Car - straightforward, honest, pleasant, well built cheap transport: me in other words Big enough too, and will sell for about £12,00 when it comes her in two years. Mmmmm??????
Mmmmm? If Fiat keeps fitting hill-holders and stuff I don't want, and doesn't fit the safety kit I do want, I might just go for a well made simple car that offers me all I want for the right price; will I be alone - doubt it.

hi geminifm
I know what you mean aboutthe space after putting a push cjair in a small car, I had a 500 but then my little man came along and the Qubo was the obvious choice for me)

My qubo is dual puprpose it works during the day, but when it it comes to taking my twins out, its great having the sliding doors and they like the high ride in the back.
And plenty of boot space for all their worldly posessions which they seem to be unable to leave the house without.
