My brother recently acquired his driving license. Being only 19 and without any experience, there was no force on earth that could convince me to let him drive my BMW. So, he had some savings and after realizing the bitter truth that my car was out of his reach (for now), he decided to buy one of his own. After searching for a while, he finally narrow down his choice to a Fiat Tipo. Well, being "burned" by used Italian cars i really did not think it was a good idea but, he's stubborn. At least he brought me along to choose the car. We saw many Tipos, some really cheap and some more expensive. We finally bought a 93'(August) Fiat Tipo ... Read the complete review

Our second car is a Fiat Tipo 1.7D, five door on a 1994 M plate. I am the third owner, having bought it at thirty thousand miles two and a half years ago. Since then I have put another twenty thousand miles on the clock. Launched in 1988 as a successor to the Strada, the Tipo range comes in three or five door versions. It has a range of engines from 1.4 litre to 2.0 litre, including Diesels, and is a competitor in the Ford Escort class. Facelift models were introduced in the early nineties before it was replaced by the Brava and Bravo. The car has an unusually long wheelbase and a high roof line. While this does not do anything for it’s looks, it ... Read the complete review

I had a Fiat Tipo for about a year and a half. It was a good little run about and I only got rid of it about 6 months ago as I was looking for a car that would suit different needs. Mines was a 1990 G register, 1.6l DGT. It was metallic Blue and looked great when I bought it. I paid £1050 for it in July 1999. I got the 5 door version. It had electric windows and a sunroof. Perhaps not the poshest specifications, but when I saw the car, I thought it was worth the money. I'm not sure if everyone will agree with that last statement, But I never had any trouble with it when I had it, and I got offered quite good money when I traded it in for my latest ...

As the title says, it's now 12 years and 120,000 miles since we bought our 1.4 DGT brand new. Got it because I had a Uno before, which was totally reliable for the 3 yrs I thrashed it. The Tipo is a roomy (4 + luggage on 3wk 2500 mile drive), economical (got 58mpg @ 60-70mph cruise & light acceleration) and MECHANICALLY reliable car (radiator, alternator brushes, carburretor fuel cutout solenoid, head to cam gasket leaked x2) The only rust we now have on it is under the rear hatch lock assembly and one door under the lower window seal. ELECTRICALLY, it's not so good (IMHO this is THE bugbear with Fiats). The central locking gave up the ... Read the complete review

We bought our tipo from new, eleven years ago. The car has served us well, in the main, except when it has been let down by Fiat Dealers and Fiat Auto UK ltd. Problems have included; 1/ an incorrectly fitted alarm (Which drained the battery if left on overnight. Living in Manchester, the car crime capital of britain, having a working alarm is a must. Unfortunately, having a working car was equally important to my business. This alarm cost me thousands of pounds of lost business.) 2/ two doors were to have been replaced as they were damaged by car thieves. We paid for new doors, and received the old doors tarted up a bit. 3/ One dealer called me a ... Read the complete review
