Advantages: Ideal small or second car

Disadvantages: Would not consider it suitable as family car generally

Four years ago I bought a second hand 1999 registered Fiat Seicento SX with 17000 miles on the clock-colour Morocco Red. Being a widower I needed a reliable small car, mainly for local driving.

It has served me well with the usual wear and tear replacements of such things as exhaust, tyres etc. It has proved to be, in my opinion, quite a robust car. In fact 4 years ago I drove to Scotland, a distance of over 300 miles of motorway driving and amazingly it’s 989cc engine ran without any sign of stress and easily maintained 70 miles per hour subject to traffic conditions.

Sun-roof, central locking, electric windows are plus items as is Insurance Group 1 and petrol economy-essential these days.

Mainly used locally and short runs of about 100 miles, enough to take me from A to B it has proved a very economical car.

The boot is small and I would not consider it suitable for a family of more than one child. One other criticism is that the pedals a rather close together. Care would have been taken with someone with large shoe size, so it would be generally suitable for the ladies requiring a second car.No sign of rust so far, but it has been well maintained.

Summary: Economy ,with good engine design and ease of maintainace
