Ive been searching for a Fiat Multipla to replace our existing x reg 2000 purple jtd, But I cannot find a decent one that has not been loaded up with stacks of people or equipment and has not seen the ravages of many years of hard labour tao.
ideally im looking for a pre march 2001 1.6 16v with aircon so it must be an elx and hopefully not in silver
the things that seem to wear are, door handles flake, dashboards seem to go sticky around the heater controls and the drivers seat gets compressed on the side where the driver slides out. as well as these details they seem to just get worked hard inside.
I could probably go for a later one if necessary but prefer the series 1/2 proper shape
thanks for your input, if I narrow the search for...
petrol and with aircon it goes down to about 15
early shape it goes down even more,
ive so far seen four of them and yet to no avail.
the best one so far sadly had a little extra noise from the gearbox.
I know they get worked hard and are well used so I'm looking for a good one,
it seems I may have a long search
thanks again Chris

Hi Tim,
Try the Multipla Owners group on Yahoo. They are a friendly bunch and there is a good chance someone may have one for sale, or at least keep an eye out for you.
Finally found one but not really on the same brief
2007 1.9 multijet dynamic in nero provocature(very dark blue) with mid to dark blue interior and 2007 bravo twin 5 spoke 17" alloys.
no aircon, diesel instead of petrol, facelift shape.
not really what I set out to find but fantastic condition and the multijet engine doesn't feel like a diesel used to be like, the sunroofs with never leak as it doesn't have any.
it didn't cost all that much too
thanks to all for your input
Chris, over the time I have been looking for a replacement multipla the number of cars on autotrader for sale has fallen fron 130 odd down to sometimes less than 90.
its an interesting point as I will never be able to list a fiat 850 on autotrader as there is not a selection for that car on the drop down menu of cars
