Fiat 500 (2008 on)
1.2 Start&Stop 3dr Hatchback
Excellent
Now had the car for year and a half and done about 16000 miles. Only one fault which was with the central locking on passenger side but quickly fixed by the dealer. Otherwise completely reliable. We live in rural North Yorkshire and car driven mainly on B roads with longer hauls to Cambridge and Oxford. It was fitted with Michelin Alpin winter tyres from new . Never bothered swopping them over to summers as do not see the need as the Michelins perform well in all weathers. We use the car to traverse muddy fields in summer to sometimes out of way fishing spots and the winter tyres give excellent traction . In winter it gets us everywhere and no need for four wheel drive at all. We get a steady 48 to 50 mpg whether B roads or 70 to 80 mph on motorways .engine uses no oil. Servicing cost £115 at year one incl VAT. Downsides are limited boot space and a bit more power would be good. Will probably swop for a twin air in about 18 months for that. But really it is a super car.
