2002 Fiat Punto elx review from UK and Ireland
"Wicked!!! - but had nothing but trouble!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had new radiator fan - New clutch - new rockerbox gasket - new oil filter and various other little bits.
General comments?
This was my first car, and I loved it to bits, was very nippy and very comfortable to drive. But I only owned this car for 8 mths. during this 8 mths the car went back atleast 10 ten time.
The last three times was because I thought there was a problem with the exhaust. ANCASTERS the dealers whom I brought it from said it was fine. 3 weeks later I was driving along the m2 and what happens?? my exhaust fell of!!! was parked in the hard sholder and someone crashed into it and my car is now a write of I lost 2000 in 8mths and I am not taking ANCASTERS to court over their poor customer service
ANCASTERS FIAT sold me the car with no break fulid - wheels unbalanced - a broken clutch! The car in gerenal was lovely, but I had nothing, but trouble with it.
