Have to disagree personally 
Test drove one. Seating position too high. Leather interior was nice but seats were uncomfy as hell. Turbo lacks any discernable kick, steering was heavy and i've read that the handling is dog shit. Gear shifter was hilarious and the clutch (altho could have just been this car ) was ghey. Altho, they can look pretty sexy with a few quid spent on them.

cambelt CAN be done without removing the engine, but as mentioned above the Fiat book time is like 15hours labour and engine out job...
