FIAT BARCHETTA 1.8 16V 2dr [LHD] (1995)

Fiat Barchetta Review - A cute little sports car

The Fiat Barchetta is a very rare car. Other than mine, I've only ever seen 2 others on the road. This is a nice feeling to know, but does it mean that it's rubbish? Not quite.

It's a good little car, nothing more, nothing less. It's not an amazing sports car and it's not a bad one, it's just in the middle. There are a lot of faults: it's not well made, isn't that reliable and it's anything but big. But there are positives: it's quick, light and nimble.

There's no room for passengers or luggage, so you'd better be single, and don't even think about having kids!

It's quite comfortable for a sports car and the running costs aren't that bad either, probably thanks to it's low kerb weight. It's basically a good little sports car for girls who want to look cool and stylish.
