i bought as a 18 year old fiat punto mk2 2001 1.2 16v 80ks and its been amazing for my first car i upgraded speakers put custom bluetooth radio and its perfect city car and for long travels cheap low fuel consumption 6 liters sometimes its 5.7 etc never broke down never got problem for first car i recommend this beast
my mechanic said motoricaly punto never will break down because its such a simple vehicle there is almost nothing to break down, the only problem i have is the electronics, mainly in winter but otherwise a perfect little car
@@testdrivehero though they were very careful with Fiat Coupe electronics to be perfect, and i wish fiat would remake the mini ferrari because it looks awesome and the 2l 5 cilinder turbo engine put many bigger brands to shame
we have a near 24 year old one, bought new, Feb 2000, 4-door, 1.2 16V HLX. Still runs like a dream after 230,000kms. Only wear parts changed, and a couple of rust spots fixed.
i have it on the house at the sea. It had some problems like powersteering and battery gone last year, and in 2021 we changed the head because on a roundabout it stopped and when it restarted later had the temperature to the stars. We after found out that a water tube was punctured.Those problems probably are because the car is used 3 weeks and then is abandoned for 11 months.But despite everything i love that car i would never give it away
I had one in black. Stuck a KN intake filter and Remus exhaust. That little pony went to 190KMH so fast it made some more powerful car owners jaw drop in disbelief.
i only have a 1.2 8v punto mk.2 (after facelift), the litthe thing is 19.20 years old, little rust and electronics dont like winter but otherwise no problem at all recently i found the manual for it and i am amazed what a car it was back when it was introduced, my main goal with my punto is upgrade it to the fully, or close to fully equipped variant, it deserve it
I want to say that aside from being enjoyable to POV driving video enthusiasts, this video is also very useful for anyone that is considering buying a Punto but has still not driven one. One can get a bit more idea what' the car like.
IN 2000 I BUY ONE RED THREE DOORS . GOOD IN CITY TRAFFIC , WEEL ENGINE ACORDING IS CLASS NOT A FERRARI , THE consumption WERE 7.1 l and i drive on higway . THE CITY FUNCTION GREAT ON PARKING .OVER 80 KLMS THE CITY TURN OFF WERE AUTOMIC OFF, BUT DRIVE TURN ON OR OFF . SO A GREAT CAR TO THE CITY AND ALSO COULD MAKE A GOOD TRIP ON HIGWAY .
