1.6 Multijet Lounge

Makes you happy!

Very recently picked up this car with under 7000 miles recorded for a stonking discount on new. Loads of good stuff as standard. The cabin is a really nice place to sit. Sat nav, a good radio, Venezia metallic blue, 18" wheels, leather interior, xenon headlights etc. The quality of the interior is very good and as others have said, Fiat have raised their game.

It ride well, it's quiet and it handles well. I think the suspension is a good compromise between handling and comfort. Very relaxing to drive.

It's two wheel drive but I reckon with some decent winter tyres it'll be just fine around our country lanes.

£20 per year to tax and a Euro 6 engine. It looks like we'll get around 48 mpg which is what I expected for the sort of driving we do. Maybe a bit more on a steady run. That certainly beats our old Freelander which, in reality, struggled to get more than 30 mpg.

It is not the the most spacious car but for a couple its great. I would have no hesitation taking it to the South if France. If you've got children (mine are grown up) then you'll probably need something bigger as the boot space is not the biggest. But heh, it's about the style.

I've no hesitation about Fiat group cars and am on my second Alfa. A Giulietta QV and a Mito QV before that.

Well done Fiat.
