2005 Fiat Punto Active review from UK and Ireland
"Unreliable, develops major faults"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fault in gear box.
General comments?
This is second Punto I have had. The first developed a cracked cylinder head after 4 years, and this one gearbox failure. Nice to drive, but doesn't last more than 4 years.
