Dont really want to sell it if im honest, just need a car which I can use to go match fishing (car is to low to get down farm tracks to lakes etc)

Sale also includes orginal fiat headunit, standard front & rear lights & full standard interior (front & rear seats / seatbelts)


If I do sell the car, would much rather it be to a fellow punto enthusiast rather than some local boy racer, so its being advertised on here before anywhere else.

Would be looking for £2550

Within budget, not too sure about range though. I'm in Bristol where abouts are you?
Oh and did it start life as a sporting? What does it say on the log book/V5 (don't know which one does what) but you know what I mean... And is it 78k on the engine or shell?

Lovely car just wish i had that sort of money :(

This car has always been a GT. Martyn just used to own a Sporting.

IIRC this car used to belong to an old skool user called GarvGT.

Nice ride worth it IMO

Yeah the car is a genuien GT, with factory fitted abarth kit.

78k on the full car, engine and shell... has been maintained to the highest standard regardless of cost, and always run on optimax

Ive owned the car for 4 years, before that belonged to user saltyhair on this forum, and before that garvgt... its always been on this site, I want it to stay on here, dont want no local boy racer having it.


Im in Cambridgeshire (between cambridge and peterborough)

Christ you've made that last tank last as they stopped making optimax months and months ago :lol:

Back on track, lovely car and worth every penny imo. Not many originals left in such mint condition.

GLWTS

That is one clean punto if i was 2 years older i would have it but the insurance would kill me hope it goes to a good home good look with sale

Vpower, Super unleaded etc, all the same stuff.

Insurance wasnt to bad for me at 20, so always worth a try?

Also included in sale is the CAT (obiviously for MOT reasons) & forgot to mention car has huge service history, & I have changed the oil every 3500 miles since ive owned which is also all written down with dates n details etc

I can vouch for this car :lol:

If your thinking of buying a GT, buy this one!

Did you declare all the mods on your insurance? I'm struggling to find somewhere that will insure a modded car at the age of 21 :S

yeah, well the kits factory fitted, so that may help slightly? try admiral I know salty was insured with them on this car n so am I, always given me good price

Nicely avoided the question there mate, haha. Take it that's a no then...

Adrian flux gave me a quote of £700 for a 250hp modded punto with no standard engine and suspension and brake mods.

Im 20.

Keep getting people asking to swap for saxo's... do I appear desperate? lol

Cash only! £2550 ovno

Still for sale? Are you busy next weekend too? PM me.

just replying to your email mate, all details in there.

Prov. Sold

I wish I had this Punto, it's immaculate, and one of the best looking Punto's around!
If only I had the pennies.

Car sold, is currently on its way to its new home 470 miles away in aberdeen
