Advantages: Economical and comfortable

Disadvantages: Large doors on the 3-door model

My Punto is a winner in the true sense of the word. My Mum and I won it 3 years ago and I am still delighted with it. Apart from the fact that I had to drape across the bonnet holding a banner which read, "Co-Op Brand Bingo"!

It's light and easy to drive, handles corners very well and doesn't have the 'small car' feeling that lots of little cars do. It's nippy and quiet and the gear changes are very smooth.

I like the interior, it's spacious and comfortable, the fascia is simple but smart and the all-round vision is excellent.

I can open the hatchback with a lever beside the driver's seat, the front of the radio comes off for security and the boot is roomy and quite high.

The only faults I have found with it are that you can't lock the passenger door when you are getting out, the driver has to lean across and do it; and the doors on the 3-door model are very large and you have to be careful when opening them.

It's economical to run, cheap to service and I would certainly buy one.
