T14086 - do you think they're a good buy, had many problems with them? Shame that standard sporting interior is so garish.
everyones different so you realy need to try for yourself....I was using a 1.4(non-turbo)today & its good but I honestly think you need the turbo version as you will soon get used to the car & want that bit more
problems......can only speak for myself (and talking to other techs) and I honestly can say I have'nt come across/heard nothing.A few oil filters 'seeping',bit of water in doors but nothing that would put me off buying one.
I think after the initial niggly problems of the GP people were wary but now its been what nearly a year & the car has proved itself to be reliable and relatively niggle free they are beginning to sell more and also the price drop helped.Feedback from customers is very positive.

My driving was very carefully. Until 3.000Km, 4000r/min. After 3.000Km 4.500r/min and with 2 passengers maximum(inclueded driver). Fast acceleration 2-3 times (5.000r/min after 3.000Km) at the National Road. And the sport function not in use until 3.000Km. Additional to all of these, I haven't instruction manual by Fiat in Greece and I haven't official technical advises from the official dealers and mainly from the leasing company (the car is in leasing from my company for 3 years).
