My mate's sister wants to get one and asked me if I thought they were any good.
Opinions, advice please.
Thanks in advance.

Currently in the process of getting one for my sister. She is still deciding on what spec and options she wants. (there are millions of permutations) We've been out in a few and are all nice cars, bit more room inside than the mini surprisingly. I was actually quite impressed with it. I am trying to talk her into getting the Abarth version, but she's not wearing it. She just likes it because it looks like a bug!!
Also, 2nd hand prices aren't much cheaper than brand new. There is a 12week wait I think on all new cars. Salesmen reluctant to offer discounts as they are selling out no problem.
Just to add, if anyone is a Fiat salesman and can offer a good deal PM me.

Very reliable so far, with only a few cars with minor niggles. Fiat are really pushing hard to iron-out any faults and improve the public's perception of the brand.

My mates Mrs. has one and absolutely loves it. I did consider a scrappage deal on a 1.2 pop for £6300 but the poverty spec and overwhelming girlieness put me off.
They hold their money well at the moment, just hope that in future they are sought after like a MINI, not an embaressment like a new Beetle.
Incidently did you notice that every colour except white is an extra cost option. £275 for a plain colour, £375 for metallic!
Edit: the scrappage was on a shagged out old peugeot, not the Saph!
