    Good Points: Stunning agressive looks, lots of gadgets, very fast and the speed just keeps coming.

    Bad Points: I keep shredding the front tyres, lol. Could really do with the suspension stiffening up, and lowering( a bit to much roll for a sports hatch)

    General comments: I've owned my Fiat 2.4 Abarth for two years now, and still love it today. I normally get bored with cars very quickly, but not this furious little beast. I have never had any problems at all and it is very reliable, although thirsty, but its worth the extra cost in fuel. My only complaint is that i go though front tires alot, well a car like this needs to be driven, right! Mines in bright blue and really turns heads, and people can't deny that its a great looking car even my mates who slag me off for owning a fiat, they're just jealous. I was once on motorway with a golf GTI, he was obviously at max power and foot to the floor, yet I still had more to go and kept pulling away from him. It was great to see the look on his face. Well as ya can see, I totally love this car and it is the best hot hatch I've had.!

    I've owned my Fiat Stilo Abarth 2.4 for about a year, and I think its a great car. Its a 2003 5 door, which is not as nice looking as the 3 door, but the suspension is a little less go-cart like, whilst still being on the sporty side, and its loads more practiacal for ferrying the folks around. Great performance, and the only reliability issue I have had is having to have a broken front spring replaced. Otherwise its been great. All the electrical gadgets, (of which there are loads!), are all wo ...

    I have had to come to a sad choice and i have had to let my v go :( . I have had it for 4 years and apart from the odd bits that i had to deal with it been the best car i have ever owned and driven, it been good fun. The amount of toys in the car is great even now theres buttons i have not pressed. When it goes to the dealer i just hope some one has as much fun out of it as i did.

    The Fiat Stilo Abarth 2.4 is a good car really with good performance,the 2.4 with selespeed is very quick. even better when its lowered,better handling round corners. my dash was lighting up last week with faults too but i found out that it was a fuse under the bonnet (7.5)amp for the injection and gearbox that broke, when i changed it the car was even better since i got it over a yr ago.

    Fantastic car! My Stilo Abarth 2.4 is still perfect after 5 years and 75000 miles of hard use in the awfull brazilian roads. Except for the SkyWindow, an acessory in the Brazilian Abarth, I never had serious problems with the car. And I really don't expect to sell it anyway.

    Fantastic car! Fast, with the great engine. Perfect design, with all useful equipment. I like it very much, and I feel like that abarth has its own personality like no other. Because of that I love my Stilo Abarth.

    Beautiful design and probably the best car fiat designed but unfortunately glitchy.......bring it back fiat but get the engine right this time. Fiat got it smack on the button with the style but the car is very glitchy you guys probably got lucky with your cars we always get them in here with problem after problem and I should know I.

    The Fiat STilo Abarth is one of the best cars I'll ever have.. and I know how others look on HIM, I looked that same way first time I saw him. You owner of abarth, fell lucky, be lucky, 'couse this is the best way to live. I love that car, something sentimental about "him", I don't know.

    I always change my cars a lot; but not my Fiat Stilo Abarth. Never have i had a car so complete it has it all Good feeling to know i have a car so good for so little, and the 2.4 sounds great when you put your foot down, but you don't need too with all that kit too play with.

    When I was looking to get myself a second hand car, a friend recommended the Fiat Stilo Abarth. I read some of the review's on various sites and was a bit put off. However with the little money I had I bought one anyway, I can tell you now that I'm so glad I did, this car is lovely to drive, its fast it has all the toys and looks great in three door model. It has not let me down yet, and for the money you pay for these you can't go wrong, these cars must be one of the best kept secrets for a use ...

    Couldn't ask for more for the price paid. Car is absolutely stunning in Electric Blue with full leather interior. Integrated Sat Nav etc. Features are similar to those found in a top spec £80,000 merc not a £5,500 second hand FIAT!! Automatic gearbox, Paddle Shift Gears, Sat Nav, Handsfree mobile and voice activated controls! Car is quite unique and engine as well as being very nippy also makes a fabulous roar when you put your foot down, I bought mine second hand with fantastic chun ...

    Great all-round car: brilliant for a bit of speed where it's needed yet a great tourer considering all its kit and toys. A grown-up's hot(tish) hatch!

    Best car I've ever had - nice for town, fast on autobahn and fun on the alpine-hairpins. Fantastic motor and great looks. Neither my Danish nor my German authorised "Fiat/Alfa/Lancia"-garage has been able to fix the airbag-alarm. Best repair lasted 4000 km - now I just live with the alarm in the dashboard.

    My Fiat Stilo Abarth is a fantastic looking car. Great Valve for money and packed full of toys. Also has a smooth ride And plenty of power when needed thanks to the selespeed gearbox. The onboard computer also is a great toy telling you even the simple things (like down the bulb gone). A very good all rounder. Powerful packed with toys sat nav is second to none would highly recommend to anyone.

    Great car for the family man who wants more from a family car. Has all the fun of a sports car with the practicality of a family work horse.

    Two years on and some considerably high miles later my Fiat Stilo Abarth 2.4 is the best place I could have put my money. I cannot knock this car at all.... either I was lucky as many others I know have been, or this car really is just a victim of some negative press and really is a fantastic motor!

    I love this car! I was fortunate enough to get it for nowhere near the asking price, and it's the top of the range Fiat Stilo Abarth, with the Abarth Scorpion decals and alloys! In a lovely Ferrari red!

    Dont buy it expecting reliability, to buy the Fiat Stilo Abarth 2.4 you have to be looking for the kit, the look and the performance, and when it brakes down think how much more expensive its rivals would have been to buy!
