Fiat Fiorino van 1.3 multijet 2008

32000 MILES, great fuel consumption,5 0 mpg in town. No customer service from Arnold Clark. Has had thrust bearing, gear linkages,drive shaft snap at gearbox and now gearbox needs replaced. Needless to say now out of warranty. Only my oppinion but beware. Now stuck with big repair bill and fiat say "TOUGH" out of warranty

Fiat Fiorino Cargo Base 2008

Bought in May ’08’ with 23 miles on the clock, base model - didn’t want any toys!! Just turned 85000 miles which is 50/50 town and motorway. I am getting in excess of 70mpg if I can be bothered to sit at 55-65mph on the motorway, but am returning an average of 55mpg (1248cc diesel) overall!! I change oil and filter every 10000miles regardless and have no problems sourcing the right oil etc.. Gearchange not the greatest, Fiat dealer said quadrant was seized (after inspection), but I removed and greased now fine!! Trip computer does flash occasionally, but this occurs when operator a bit hasty with the ignition, turn off and back on after warning lamps extinguish solves, no problem! Fuel consumption does plummet when racing Porsches, but this is a little van and for me it does the job no complaints!!

Fiat Fiorino 2008

Positves: Good trim and controls, engine responsive, load area surprisingly large. Negatives: Economy no where near the claimed 70mpg more like 45 even on long runs. Do Not Purchase this van if you need to leave anything of any value in it. It has been borcken into twice costing £1300.00 in tools the first time and £760.00 the second time, even after a market stainless steel back plate was fitted to the rear door handle /lock. Fiat not interested so be warned DO NOT BUY

Fiat Fiorino 2008

Collected my Fiorino van in Aug ’08, 4 miles on the clock. Drive mainly motorway miles and have done 11,500 miles. Poor dealer service as they are unable to source the oil as quoted in the handbook for any top ups stating that they would just put the oil that is in the drum in the workshop. Rear door hinges are showing some corrosion, been back to the dealer but have not heard from them in a week. Mileage flashes sometimes on the dash and the gearbox is now so notchy it will not go into gear, due back at the dealer on 26/01/09 for a test drive. Shame as van is good with 58mpg etc but the biggest issue I have is the reluctance of the dealers to offer any customer service.

Fiat Fiorino 1.3 turbodiesel 2008

I work for Fiat and have taken the Fiorino for a brief test drive. It is a well-thought out subcompact that should be very economic - the 1.3 engine also only emits 119g/km, thus avoiding the congestion charge and helping the environment at the same time. I think that this will be a hit in the commercial sector.
