You really dont like Fiat do you?
So if I left my choice soley up to you, you would say don't buy a Fiat yes?
Just to stir something else into the mix... Ateco is a NEW ZEALAND company... yes, our FIAT importer decided to re-introduce FIAT across the ditch :devil: I wonder how you feel about Kiwi businesses in Oz! 'The Warehouse' is a huge success here, total flop over there. And remember Ansett? :chin:
I think it would be safest to buy a manual-transmission FIAT rather than Selespeed/Dualogic. Other than that, there may be other random faults (just as for many other new cars). I suggest that a Road Trip to Sydney is a brave way to buy one (is there not a closer dealer in Brisbane - bear in mind my geography's not good), as you may have to make a few return visits!
Think of it this way. If you don't buy it, and get something else, you'll be wondering what you've missed. If you do buy it, and it gives a stream of problems, well, you'll be expecting it. I reckon you should just go for it and find out how it goes.
Cheers,
