Loved my Stilo.

Had an estate and it was cavernous, well built, comfortable and just munched the miles.

Bought it pre-reg for under £10k if I remember which was a hefty amount off new retail but still lost a fortune when I got rid five years later.

Regret selling it in the end especially as I changed it for a focus which wasn't as good (but did drive better).

Checked it's MOT history a while back and I've never seen a car fail so epically! Obviously scrapped after that!

Underrated car but after the stylish Bravo/Brava it was always a bit lacklustre. They tried to copy the golf but people didn't want an Italian golf, they wanted a smallish car with a bit of flair.

It's not for me, to be honest I got halfway through cleaning it and lost interest! smile I think I'll let it be someone else's project. It does go well though!
