Is the Fiat Fiorino a good car? 

The third-generation Fiat Fiorino was unveiled in October 2007 and became available in both panel van and passenger body styles, the latter under the Qubo nameplate. Based on the Fiat Grande Punto platform, the Fiorino is powered by either Fiat’s 1.3 Multijet diesel or 1.4-litre petrol engine.

Fiat Fiorino owners have reported that it's a reliable little panel van with low running costs and downtime. It's cheap to service too. There are Fiorinos that have over a million km on the odo and still working perfectly.

The latest enhancements to the Fiorino were added in 2012.

What’s it like to drive? 

On the road, the common rail diesel unit proves quiet and refined. Its road manners are impeccable and will really put a smile on the face of any enthusiastic driver. I undertook a 300-mile trip in one day and enjoyed every single yard of it - not a back twinge or a leg ache in sight.
