Additional notes
- Vehicle is 15+ years old. Age-related issues: rubber seals/hoses degrade, electrical connectors corrode, suspension bushings wear. Not specific to any engine, but expect €500-1,500/year in age-related maintenance beyond normal service items.
- Fiat TwinAir 0.9 2-cylinder turbo: high oil consumption BY DESIGN, MultiAir unit failures (€600-1,500), timing chain stretch. Fun to drive but expensive to maintain for such a small engine. Check oil level on test drive — if low, owner is neglecting it.
