      I don’t know man, I had a 2010 Punto Evo that just refused to die.

      Sure, I had to replace the clutch at 120,000km as the previous owner probably drove in a lot of stop and go traffic. But other than that it was my own stupidity or regular wear and tear that made it go to the mechanic for some work.

      It even started overheating because of a coolant leak one time. I just drove it gently to the shop and got it fixed. No tow truck necessary, as the 77hp 1.4 liter engine barely generated any heat to begin with.

      I sold it at 230,000km a few months ago.

        To be fair, that line came to be from 70’s Fiats. When the brand came back to many countries in the 2000’s, things had improved quite a bit.
