The day I bought my Fiat Grande Punto was a strange one..I knew that I needed to get myself a new vehicle as my car at the time (a 2001 Peugeot 206) was on its last legs, so I set about the task of visiting car manufacturers in the city, after visiting at least 4 garages/dealers with little success, I came to the 5th, and poor old Peugeot completely clapped out there and then. Realising that I had to kiss goodbye to the Pug i looked round the dealers showroom and outside, and realised that my next motor would be very near.
The cars at the said dealer were all very similar.. Hatchbacks, mainy kia's, punto's and the like. My eyes scouted every car there, nothing satisfied me until i came across a nifty looking black punto in the corner.
I'd always thought of punto's as a bit of a girly car, but this particular model looked smart and elegant, so I thought there and then i'd ask the dealer for a test drive.
3 and a half years later I can honestly say it was the best purchase i've made.
Great econony.. I get 65 miles to the gallon on average, rides smootly, lovely steering, nice features inside and out.
Would reccommend this to anyone.
