Fiat Bravo in general Reviews

Recently bought a 3 door 1.4 sx (97R). Firm, but comfortable ride and quickest of several 1.4 cars I've owned from the mid 90s inc Astra merit & Rover 214si, make the Bravo a really nice drive. Around 30+ mpg in hilly hometown. Replacing front shocks was probably attributable to local speedbumps but costly to replace by ...  Read the complete review

HGTRUBBISH! 2 BROKEN CAM-BELTS IN 6 YEARS AND JUST 32K MILES. TOOK MONTHS TO GET THE FIRST FAILURE PUT RIGHT! DEALER INDIFFERENT, FIAT NOT INTERESTED!

I bought my Bravo new in Autumn 1999, so got one of the revised models, which has a few benefits over the original Bravo. This car was "European Car of the Year 1996", and certainly at the time was very highly thought of. More recent cars have eclipsed it of course, but that's down to progress - at the time the Bravo ruled! ...  Read the complete review

Much underated and undervalued Italian style - Advantages: Stylish, Responsive engine, Smooth ride - Disadvantages: Small boot

Having run a 1999 Bravo 100 (1.6) HLX since the end of January 2002, and having covered over 10,000 miles in it, I feel I am qualified to say that it is the best car I've owned to date. Firstly, I have to get the colour out of the way - Broom Yellow. I fell in love the second I saw it - that fantastic design, and the ...  Read the complete review

I have had a Fiat Bravo for over a year and the whole experience has been rather painful. The car itself is fun to drive and looks good. Also, the prices have been going down due to cheap European imports and the launch of the new Fiat Stilo. So overall it might look as a good option as you can get a lot of car for you money. ...  Read the complete review

I bought a Fiat Bravo 1.4SX in 1997. It looked the real business- flame red, low-slung, cd multi-changer, and it moved liked sugar off a shovel- great. The model was one-up on the base spec. It was a three door hatchback with the following standard features: Power Steering Colour-Keyed Bumpers and Mirrors Electric front ...  Read the complete review

This car is the first car that I drove after passing my driving test in a Vauxhall Corsa. I have to say it drives and feels like a BMW. The car was bought from Trade Sales in Slough, why do I mention them? Well they are the biggest car dealer in the UK that no one knows about. They will get you a brand new car and will take ...  Read the complete review

This has always been one of my 2nd choice cars, much preferring the Volkswagen Golf MkIII, but beggars can't always be choosers! I would recommend a smaller engine if you want your car to be more economical as this 1.6 litre version is not that at all. As I am a student and I find this car takes much more petrol than I can ...  Read the complete review

I bought this car approximatley 2 years ago after looking at the Punto range. I saw one of these on the forecourt and I much preferred the shape and styling over the Punto. I've not been dissapointed with this car, even though Fiat got a bit of a slating in the JD power survey. The exterior styling looks really nice and if you buy ...  Read the complete review

Fiat decided to up the ante with hatchbacks. No more 1.6 or 1.8 rubbish. They developed a 2 ltr 5 cylinder engine and stuck it in their family friendly bravo. This completely changes the character of the car and turns it in to a bit of a roadburner. Power is 150hp and it is good for 125 mph. Inside is a bit of a letdown. ...  Read the complete review
