    Keeping on topic, I drive that way in my Fiat Stilo :)

    I get a service every six months - major every 12 and a smnall service six months later.

    Why would anyone do any different :confused::confused:

    A number of cars have 20,000 mile two year servicing now so why do it every 6 months?

    Our punto is 12,000 or 12 months so agin we do it once a year....

    I own a Fiat

    OK its not a Punto, its a Coupe 20v turbo... but its 10 years old this year, no rust, never missed a beat, never had to spend anything on it except tyres and brakes... I would have no hesitation at all in recommending Fiats, just dont take it to a main dealer, there are plenty of independent specialists dotted around the country.

    I disagree with what people say about car forums... the vast majority of people go on there because they are having problems with their car... ok sure some people find the time to go there just to rave about how good their car is, but they are a small percentage.
