| Bravo looks and feels sportier than the 5-door Brava; its lower weight gives performance advantages. The car has Italian brio, with eager engines of 80bhp to 150+bhp. The 100bhp 1.6 16v from 1999 suits the car well, giving 0-60mph in just over 10 seconds. The free-revving 1.2 16v is livelier than the 1.4. A crisp gear-change, good grip and relatively light bodies help the keen driver's enjoyment of the cars, whether nipping in and out of traffic or hurrying along country roads. Ride is fidgety at lower speeds but not uncomfortably so. With low purchase prices, average fuel economy, insurance in Groups 5 to 8 for popular versions, and sensible servicing costs, Bravo is a good budget choice if you can live with so-so safety and security standards. |
