Fiat Seicento Sporting - What to Look Out For

[DriverNo1]

Hi folks.

Just looking for some advice regarding what problems to look out for, if any, on a Seicento Sporting. I'm going to have a look at one on Sunday and if all goes well, it'll be my first car

Cheers.

Electric motor for power steering has been known to give problems, or sensors on steering column. If power steering only works one way, it could be pricey.

Other than that, AFAIK, they're pretty good - ours was superb.

Head gaskets as well. Do the old check under the oil cap for mayonnaise.

Really appreciate the help guys and a big thanks to the person who PM'd me a link to Clubcento. Lots of useful info on there

Oh, and I'll be sure to post lots of pics if all goes to plan

....the person you're buying the car from. Mature owner with the V5 at the same address, nice part of town, 2nd or 3rd car, not a dealer flogging cars from his drive. Avoid chavs (or their girlfriends) and any addition that looks like it may have been purchased at Halfrauds.
