My folks ran one from new from ‘96 for 4 or 5 years. Generally it was reliable for them and drive very nicely for a front wheel drive car as didn’t weigh much. I used it a bit and having not long passed my test, loved it. I always felt it was a really underrated car as it was genuinely pretty and compared to the fiat cinquecento sporting I had, felt most luxurious with its dark red leather interior.As per the title anyone had one or experienced one ?
Seen a few nice looking ones advertised here and fancy taking a look at them for Ms French.
Watched a few YouTube reviews from well known channels and they are quite pleasing.
Anyone got an opinion ?
Cheers in advance.View attachment 127880View attachment 127881

They really are a pretty car indeed and along with the diamond leather trim a lovely place to be and you just don't see many around along with simple straight forward mechanicals just perfect.always fancied one of these, one of the prettiest wafting cars inside and out you can find IMO. will be following your search closely.......with envy![]()
I thought Fiat and Nissan had stopped using reclaimed steel, seems now they only use it on the unseen underneath parts which is even worseThankfully no salt on the roads around here which helps lots.
I've already seen how bad they can go Andy here's one in the UK.View attachment 127883

Just had a look on their website and very impressive.The Architect is on his second which is a keeper; first one went to a garage owner here (who also has two!). Hood leaks can be an issue. Fun to drive - I borrowed them. Colleague’s racing driver friend loved his. Fiat variators. For deeper info speak to DTR in London who know them inside out.
Very interesting and both very pretty.Wouldn't you (she) prefer a Lotus Elan (M100)? Assuming you want a dodgy turn-of the-century open two-seater.
