    We're talking about mere mortals who own these cars not racing teams ffs wake up the punto is sh1t around the twisties even with arb's and coil overs ect better yes but not fantastic.

    Real world not in your head.

    Yeah ok. Whatever you say. I beg to differ. £2k isn't racing treat money, that's real world money.

    the standard, probably original 150k +miles suspension on my 205 is still miles better than my punto which is lowered, polybushed and rsx suspension.

    no rust worries with mine and its been sat down the drive for the best part of 6 years, charge the battery up and it will start first time even after sitting doing nothing for years.

    I love it, its like a little go kart.

    In standard form, you're right.
