1998 Fiat Punto 75 SX review from Finland
"Compact comfort"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Some minor problems in the first year, like the back door lock jammed and central locking malfunction.
Second year and some leak from the gearbox, one bolt too loose.
Now (2001) everything seems to be OK!
General comments?
Very reliable car and easy driving.
Small but roomy at the same time.
Good engine 75hp, enough power for long holiday journeys (2000 summer 4000km on German highways with no problems, only brakes overheating in the Alps!) and good in cities.
45000 service ahead... maybe some work with the brakes.
