Kaiser D · 06-03-2014 11:43PM

Fiat Punto Sporting, NCT 7/14, Tax 3/14, €650
1 owner too. Bloody bargain this. Seriously fun things to drive.

fl4pj4ck · 06-03-2014 11:58PM

it says "one family", not "one owner"
also, 1.2 fun to drive?

colm_mcm · 07-03-2014 12:02AM

Its only 2 owners on the book to be fair.
They're great craic to drive.

fl4pj4ck · 07-03-2014 12:04AM

Asking Price: € 2,100, surely he'll drop it by a hundred?

The 16v one is a fun,

Light enough car. Had it in Bravo and it was fast enough for a hatchback of tthis provenience, 100 km/h in 2nd gear was a fun.

Owned one once. My favourite Supermini to date (head gasket aside

)

Have you ever driven one? It doesn't need a V6 or V8 to be fun to drive, sure an 899cc Cinquecento is better fun to drive than lots of stuff I've owned tbh.

fl4pj4ck · 07-03-2014 12:26AM

didn't know I had to have one to ask a question

GvidoR · 07-03-2014 12:46AM

That Punto has a 16v engine which has 84 horsepower whereas most of the other Punto's you'd see are 8v with 59 horsepower. Not bad at all for 650. It's the 2 door version too.

I only asked Mr fl4pj4ck. But to answer your question; Yes. They are very good fun to drive and I'm sure everyoen on here who has driven one will confirm.

I had a 1.2 8v Punto and it was fun to drive when it was stripped out, the 16v one in the ad should be just as fun if not better without the removed weight.

Very interesting car. 1.0 turbo with 115 bhp? Dayum.

Too bad it's automatic.

unkel · 07-03-2014 09:21AM

No NCT, kupus. Not bangernomics.

Gosub · 07-03-2014 09:34AM

I've just sold my bangernomics car. I Bought it last year to save me the cost of automatic car hire as I was hiring regularly. Sold it after 7 months of continual use for the exact figure I paid for it. Total cost: 1 tyre and a set of brake pads.

Bangernomics is great.

Worlds worst ad!

It's either a disaster or a steal at that price!! :cool:

I don't know much about them, but looking at motorcheck that one comes up as a 1.8T sport, not a Cupra. Seems they have the 180bhp engine same as a Cupra, maybe just different wheels/bodykit?

Notice no radio either.

I thought all 1.8T Leons were Cupra.

The ad itself is very poor, some people don't know how to take the pictures and sell the car.

Maybe they are I really don't know..
Parkers has them as two seperate models http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/reviews/facts-and-figures/seat/leon/hatchback-2000/ with the sport having 3bhp more than the Cupra!!
Maybe early ones were sports, and later ones Cupras?

Toyota Avensis, NCT 6/14, Tax 10/14, €1250
Very nice spec on this. Lots of tax, shame about the short-ish tax. I bet the 2.0 is juicy too.

That would be a cracker, if it wasn't automatic. Especially because it's a turbo one.
