Advantages: Reliability, Driving position, Looks

Disadvantages: Dealer service prices, Small boot, Top end power

Although fast approaching it's third year in our family, I still have a smile on my face every time I climb out of the Fiat Seiento. Surprisingly for such a small city car, and one which is not exactly in the first flushings of youth, it still draws admiring looks and comments from other motorists. It's cheeky good looks (particularly with the additional Abarth bodykit and alloy wheels) and sharp steering and handling make it a pleasure to drive. The 1.1 litre engine has reasonable punch and is not as noisy on motorway journies as I expected. The driving position is excellent and the actual drivers seat is one of the most comfortable I've experienced. Even after a three hour slog down the motorway I goy out without an ache in my back. True, it could do with a little more top end grunt but then again it is only designed for the city. On the downside, the boot is pitiful, you can't even fit a trolley full of shopping in it, and the dealer services are a little on the extortionate side, but other than that this car has been an absolut pleasure to drive.
