1987 Fiat Duna 60 1.1 from Greece
Summary:
A nice car for its price
Faults:
(no major problems)
General Comments:
My father bought this car in 1987, when I was 5 years old and from the first time I saw it parked outside my house I liked it very much. When I turned 18 the car was given to me as my first one. All these years it was regularly serviced and properly maintained and despite the 210k km it's got it still runs as new, as we had the engine rectified at 160k km.
The advantages of this car are that it's very comfortable for its size and it has a huge luggage compartment. Also, the handling is good for a small sedan, although it would be much better if it was a little bit lowered and had 14" wheels. The brakes are good and generally I feel safe in my Duna (I use it for long trips except the "downtown" use).
My Duna doesn't have any serious cons. The only problem, if I can say so, is the performance, esp. the acceleration, but I'm used to it. Also, the fuel consumption when driven in the city is a bit high, but it's an old car after all.
Overall, I'd say that the Duna is a fair car for its price and if you take care of it, it sure won't disappoint you.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
