Advantages: Amazingly smooth ride, Very manoeuverable, Small outside, Large inside

Disadvantages: Very ugly, only comes in manual transmission

It may be uglier than a rhino's bum, but the Fiat Multipla is an amazing car.

Only being 4 metres long you would expect there to not be much room inside but thats where you'd be wrong. Instead of the standard 5 seats, an extra one is positioned between the two front seats. This seat and the back ones can also be folded down to reveal tables with integrated drink's holders.
There is plenty of leg-room for each and every one of the amazingly comfortable seats (all with 3-point seat-belts)
Extra large windows and twin sun-roofs (all electric) allow for supurb air circulation, even before you turn on the air conditioning (that comes as standard).
If it's space you are after, the back three seats can be removed completly giving 1900 litres of luggage space.
Safety-wise, this car includes ABS, reinforced side impact bars, and driver and front passenger airbags.

For those who want to know the technical details, the Fiat Multipla comes in 1.6 16v (Petrol) and 1.9 JTD (direct injection turbodiesel) models, with around 11 and 8 miles per gallon respectively.

This car is also available in a host of different colours, and upholstery styles.

The comfort of a luxury saloon, the practicality and capacity of a roomy estate and the easy handling and manoeuvrability of a small car, it's no wonder that this car won "Top Gear car of the year " in 2000 and "Top Gear family car of the year" in 2000 and 2001. This car gives one of the best rides you will ever experience in a car (Trust me, i love riding in one)

So, any downpoints to this marvelous machine? Only that it is ugly from the outside, and only comes in manual transmission, but this are minor faults to an otherwise perfect transporter.

i took the mpg from the official fiat site for the car, so i guess they are right.

SX does not have air conditioning as standard. The ELX does. The diesel mpg is better than the petrol.

Needs some attention as regards mpg figures and more detail needed.

However, I always wondered where Fiat designers got their inspiration from ... a rhino's bum does sound favourite ...
