Fiat Stilo
by Kevin Burlinson 02.09.02
When driving the car everything is so smooth, relaxing and well placed within the car. Everything is quite easily within your reach from the driver's seating position. The depth of the glove compartment makes quite a change from the small one I had within the Bravo. All of the controls don't take that much to get used to as they are mainly in the same place as they are in the Bravo. It seems that the Stilo is a bit bigger than the Bravo I had before. The car would have almost been perfect except from the day I picked it up, when I noticed paint missing from one of the wheel arches and passenger's door, a dent in the passenger's door, ill-fitting bonnet and runs in the paint on the passenger's door. Dust had got onto the body work before it was spray painted (or so I was told) causing there to be a lot of small bumps all over the car and scratches galore all over the car. The most amazing part was when the cover that conceals the chassis number came away in my hand because it had not been fitted properly. The wires under the front seats are just left hanging there with no cover what so ever. A very disappointed Stilo owner.
