Default Fiat Petra ELX Black sedan -30000Kms review

So my petra has completed 30,000kms and here is my brief report on ownership.
She is a beauty and she roars like a tiger/panther when you drive her on the roads. She is quick to get off the mark, and I am sure if you were to race her, she would win against most cars on the road. On pot hole road you can breeze through in the 3rd gear. On uphill roads, she is like a swift workhorse. As far as her fodder is concerned, I used to get 10Kms/L in the city and now she gives me 11.2 Kms/L. This improvement I have noticed after servicing her at 23000 Kms. In the second year she had some problem with ignition, which was fixed by Shaman services.

Things that could have been better : Her interiors, some minor recurring problems with the horn not working at times.

Though she is big she is also very agile. All in all I am so happy that I have her.
