It is a nice little car mate! And you got great pictures taken of it! Nice to see you take it close to it's limits.
Sry for the sec issues you got! Also you don't see those to often on Romanian streets! (been there form time to time work wise)
So for the quality of fiats... I had a Cinquecento Sporting for one Summer and it was a brilliant little car! I think every one has it's personal feelings about car brands so I (personally) would never have a car-quality chat with the owner of a car we here call Ford Fiasco!
