General Comments:
Bought for my daughter as she thought it was "cool". Looked OK upon purchase.
Well it looks modern and funky, but that's about it. It's the common white color with red striping. Probably the coolest thing in the world when new. But not now.
OK to drive when running correctly. Can be economical, but there is no performance whatsoever.
Comfort/space is nonexistent.
Had too many irritating faults. Not a great car. Typical poor quality Fiat.
Not a car I would buy again. Typical modern car that puts style and gimmicks before quality. Only get in one if your other options are walking or taking the bus!
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? No

I think your review is possibly in the minority.
What was the engine? That twin cylinder jobbie? I have read they need to be worked hard to maintain decent progress, and that affects economy massively against what's quoted by FIAT. Having said that, it isn't the only car that is affected that way!!
I recently had a C1 3 cylinder on hire, and that was a cracker - again it needed to be worked hard, but it went about things very enthusiastically, and did a rock solid 49.5 MPG no matter how I drove it.
