My first car was also a 1994, M reg Punto 1.1 sx. 2nd car was a sporting 16v and my 4th car was a GT in this same colour (Rialto blue). Absolutely loved that car. I’m pretty sure you have my old morette headlights fitted to yours as I remember selling them to the previous owner. He used to call that car chewie as the last part of the reg is CHW. Will be watching this channel 👍

1983 MK3 Escort 1300 3 door in Caspian blue early 2002 Xr rep did drive around in black Escort RS turbo for a while it was so low you could barely get 5 fingers in the gap between the road and the sills
Mine was a 1967 bug - the last year of the "sloping headlights". It had a one year only wiper motor, which had burnt out - every time it rained, I had to have a passenger to hang out of the side-light windows with a window squeegy thingy to manually wipe the windows. Loved it - super cool, but a nightmare to run as a penniless student
Why are you keep interrupting him, let him tell his story.... My first car was a Uno.....now at nr 8, and yes it's a E reg Uno Turbo with a tuned 1.4 engine in it......
Wow lovely car and colour .. haven’t seen one in years 👌🏼 loving the different content !! Even though I’m 30 first car I had was a 2015 Clio 1.5 dci … grew up around all the old cars though .. I’ve got cousins who’ve got a mk1 Astra, Sierra, mk2 escort !! Looking forward to the next vid 🤙🤙
your bulb is out again mate. lol. remember a boy near me had a red one of these with the magnex twin centre exit exhaust. i always had a soft spot for these, a bit like a more modern 5 gt turbo.
Straight line the Punto was pretty rapid. But corners are deffo a no no 🤣 More GT content please lads........"Rialto Blue" btw..... Needs a tussle video in the summer with the Cossie......
Completely agree with you back in the day the 106 GTIs and Saxo VTSs run rings round most of the hot hatches they did well up Hams Hall aswell think you guys might of been up there when i had my red mk1 VTS and that EP3 R crashed over the island 🤣, even now they are still awesome in the corners.
1987 MK1 Fiat Uno Turbo that I bought for £250 from South London. But I've owned 5 Punto GT's too, mk1,2 &3 with the gt3 on the seats and door cards. I think your car is a rialto blue car, pretty rare colour.
Back in 2001 I bought a 92 J Escort 1.3. Manual choke and no rev counter lol Fitted smiley grill bonnet, RS2000 replica front bumper, later rear bumper which stuck out a fair bit and colour coded everything and got it resprayed in its original Aporto Red :)
Well what’s worse then a french car the punto is Italian so electrics are even worse😂 The number plate bulb was working on mot same with side lights but shortly after passing mot taking the car home I noticed the side light fuse had blown agen and number plate light was out wonderful Italian electrics for you 🙈😂
Had a gt from new in yellow, gt3. Fitted coilovers, 16's, abarth kit, Italian chip, magnex, induction, twin Collins dump valves, 160 bhp. Great fun, shame I sold it. Did you know some gt2s were different from each other depending on the factory parts bin?
I have 3 of the Punto GT’s mate My first car was a fiesta rs turbo then I had ren 5 gt I’ve had the Punto GT just love them. Can see mine on the profile pic 230bhp
I believe this is Chewy, I haven't seen it for years... I believe the previous owner for in his 70's, that was probably 12+ years ago?!? The owner also had Dean's black 16vt and a grande essesse...
Class video lads my first car on the road was a mk1 nova saloon 2 door (stil got it) But my first car at 14 was a mk3 fiesta witch every week id go spend my pocket money on a new sticker for my shopping list down the doors lol 😂
There was a country lane the back end of Brownhills aswell good for drag runs but can't remember what it was called, use to stop off there from cannock maccies on route to hams..
