About the 2006 TRIGANO FIAT

With an average of 58,887 miles at 18 years old, TRIGANO FIAT owners tend to use this car less than the typical driver. Very low mileage could mean the car has been garaged or used only for short trips, which can cause its own issues like battery drain and moisture buildup.

Expect around 40 mpg in mixed driving, which works out to roughly £1,245 per year at current diesel prices of 148p per litre (based on 7,400 miles per year). Diesel cars of this age should have their DPF (diesel particulate filter) checked, as replacements can be costly.

Buying a Used 2006 TRIGANO FIAT
At 18 years old, the TRIGANO FIAT is firmly in budget territory. Purchase prices are low, but check for rust, worn suspension bushes, and electrical gremlins.
