Saw this linked from a Vectra forum that I continue to use.
What an absolute joke.
I used to own a 1.6 Stilo - it was a joke of a car. The Vectra would win hands down in any race or competition or comparison, as the Stilo would break down. I only go from personal experience.
Anyone can do a search on here and find my posts about how unreliable the Stilo was. Compare that to my Vectra, only thing that has been mission disabling was a knackered clutch (replaced under warranty with no quibble) and that was exactly 101,000 miles ago. Since then it has NEVER let me down - not even once. Ok, the radio stopped working and that was replaced under warranty too.
So, there you go. All you will ever need to know from someone who has owned both marques. I will NEVER buy another Fiat, unless I have a frontal labotomy first, as the one and only Fiat I had was truly dire...
BTW, the Mazda is still going strong and just passed it's MOT again with no issues (only needed a front tyre).
