Ooh, I love them in that light blue you can get them in. I gotta mate in n.wales with one that colour with a body kit and PAZ's 'zaust. Looks and sounds absolutly mint! I'll see if I can get some pics of it soon for ya, but good choice matey. <img border="0" alt="[cwsmokin]" title="" src="graemlins/cwemotions036.gif" />

I dont like em at all!

The guy who used to own my car b4 me "upgraded" to a Punto and regretted it!

The are nasty cheap, tin like cars that are horrible to drive.

But that is my opinion

The old ones are the Italian tin cans on wheels, but the new ones are fkn gorgeous wink

I think they look good. But! How about a Charade GTiR 1ltr Turbo? They're mad quick, don't know about the insurance though.

charade is grp 11. as 4 a punto big no no reliability is awful and bulid quality is poor but those front lights 2 fair are quitte fit!!

what car do you guys suggest then? im thinkin off either a punto, MK4 (i think)fiesta, polo(like the one advertised in for sale and wanted) Civic, or a 106 again?

my mates got a 2002 punto, theyr smart lookin cars, but i had a go of it, an wasnt keen on it to drive.

buts its like all cars, you adjust to them eventually.

if u get the older 2door model, then u can get a better variety of mods for it.

hope that helps.

also, some wheels tend not to fit it. but we did fit a pair of 17 wolfraces to my mates car the other day, so u shud b ok.
