1998 Fiat Punto GT Turbo review from UK and Ireland
"Pocket rocket!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Sunroof runners have just gone, but it's 11 years old now!!
Fuel filler pipe had hole in it - cheap to repair if not too corroded. (wonder-weld)
General comments?
Great little car, that's fun to drive!! Plenty of turbo lag that throws you back in your seat at 2500rpm when the turbo kicks in!
Puts a lot of other cars to shame at the lights!!
Handling is good too, but the ride is not perfect.
Plenty of gadgets for an 11 year old car; electric everything!!
Overall, great fun and very cheap now, but hard to find a good one! Like rocking horse poo now!!!
