Kids of today eh? What happened to driving a knackered old car, no power steering, no air con, no fun gadgets, no beeping noises to warn you when you dont turn the lights off etc. as a first car?
Hope you enjoy the freedon of owning your own car, but you really don't need to go everywhere in it.My phone has an alarm clock! Ner Ner! :p

Looks pretty sweet, JB

Very nice indeed! I always thought the old Punto looked very cheap indeed, but I have to admit FIAT seem to have done a good job with the new one.
Only one thing is that it doesn't have air con, if there is one optional extra that is always well worth the money, it's air conditioning, it's worth every penny. Wor lass didn't think she would like having A/C in her car but I convinced her to get it and now she says she'd never even consider a car without it.
Jim, Mostly for small cars you have to go to the top model if you want Auto, is there any reason why a manual is no good for you?Please 'like' our facebook page http://www.facebook.com/motorsportforums

My wife had an original Punto .... Went like a scalded cat but the thing that got me was that it had the most amazing brakes..
But how about the forthcoming Fiat 500 Abarth? That looks like a mean little beast..

Nonsense indeed when you even yourself admit they cite other publications… I wish them well but at the moment I don’t see them adding any value writing the same articles Anyway. Off topic ...
