I prefer the look of the Fiat Bravo as the new Ibiza looks like a granny car that is confused on what it is supposed to be. (In pictures anyway)

The only thing is I don't trust Fiat cars, 5yr warranty or not I'd rather have no warranty and no problems than 5yr warranty and 5yrs of problems.

Please dont buy a Fiat over SEAT. Having owned a bravo 2007 Tjet 150 sport from new.... never again would i step foot in a Fiat. Build quality very poor inside and out. Gearbox is useless, frozen due to poor quality oil in winter months. Squeeky brakes from 1000 miles. Light steering with No feedback, although on straight roads it sometimes felt like the sterring wheel was conected to the wheels!
After 23000 miles/ 4 years the gearbox started to make a noise which got louder as you drove faster..... an expensive fix= new gearbox around £1500-2000, common fault in the UK.

Got rid of Bravo and invested in Mk5 Ibza FR. What a fantastic car.

It's a Fiat worse than death!! :lol:

Nah wouldn't have a Fiat near me. They might have tarted them up a bit but essentially its Italian and Italian build quality is shite! Ferrari included considering what you pay for one!
