Rock Solid, Reliable and Practical

I owned my Tipo from 1995 until 1999 an ex hire car with 6000 miles on the clock.

By the time I traded it in it had 83,000 on the clock and had never given me any problems. I only ever had to pay for servicing and consumables and a new exhaust after a speed bump damaged the it at the front.

As the previous reviewer stated, it was better to drive than you'd expect. I did many trips from the Midlands to North Wales (350 miles round trip) more times than I care to remember and it was always stable and responsive and good on fuel.

It was deceptively spacious and comfortable. If you can find one of the few that are left that hasn't been abused, you'd be getting hold of a car that was way ahead of it's time.
