    My mother has just sold her mk2 Punto and is looking for a replacement. The car will only do a few thousand miles a year and looking at a 5 door, 1L - 1.2L with an NCT for around €1500.

    The old shape fiesta 1.25 (00-02) is looking like a favorite at the moment but would be interested in peoples views on

    * Fiat Panda
    * Corsa 02 model
    * fabia

    Any help appreciated.

    +1 I have one of each. Punto feels modern and comfortable compared to the Fester of the 90s. Fester is a much better car IMO (difficult for me to say that)

    I also had a Corsa, bag of shíte!

    Pandas are lovely and roomy inside :)

    Don't know much about Fabias. If they're like Polos they won't be quick but won't be a bad car at all :)
