General Ride in Fiat 100HP

[LeanMeanRacing]

I haven't got nothing against V-tecs, my mate has a Civic Type R, fantastic car to rag around a track or on a B road, but for town driving their not so nice to live with. This girl i know had a S2000, she got rid because it was useless around town under 'normal' driving conditions

Remapping is cheating!

As for your friend struggling with her S2000, perhaps she needed to use the gear lever a little more? Personally, I never had an issue with pottering around in the ITR or S2000.

Anyhow, back to the 100HP's ride. It's an inexpensive to buy/run warm-hatch and as a result, many compromises were made. It doesn't have high-quality, well-engineered suspension and on rough roads, you are only too aware of that. However, it offers great fun and value-for-money. As they say, horses for courses.

Having covered over 80k in mine, I am still happy

Couldnt have put it better myself. The cars are built to a compromise and for what they cost, especially used, are very good value for money. The ride is only an issue on bumpy/rough roads and around town etc it is perfectly acceptable, you just find yourself avoiding pot holes etc in the road.

I had to sell my 182 for insurance reasons (new address meant insurance went from £650 to £1500!!) and the 100HP was the best performance-insurance group compromise i found, i've had the car about 2 months now and not looked back once!
