    Cant remember Xzibit being hated that much, i always thought he was ok and enjoyable to read his comments.
    Lol, ok maybe it was just the feeling I got from certain members then. Chris banned my home IP address, how friendly .

    Btw, my post was tongue and cheek. I've had 2 puntos, the Punto GT is now my brothers, and I love it now just as much as when I bought it in 2004. Totally under estimated cars.

    One thing yourself and all the other typeR, Focus RS, Clio V6 owners forget when bashing the punto is... It was designed 15years ago, uses an engine from an Uno-T going back 20 or so years back, alot are now dead, even more are ill looked after and owned by folks who think they can breat R1s and Evos... The story doesnt look to begin with considering what you start with, add those drivers who drag us all down = bad opinion, bad image, the works!

    In the end its different folks = different strokes, sure ill move on at some time, got a fancy for a Vtec turbo but cant afford to change cars any time soon. Either way my 'punto' is quick enough to put the willys up alot of cars, and it didnt cost 20k
    Good response there, m8.

    I still miss my GT - warts and all. One of my favourite memories of it was coming back from Majorca on a two week holiday back in '98. A relative had allowed me to leave it in their garage for the fortnight and I went picking it up early on the Saturday afternoon.

    It was a sunny day and I purposely took a long-way home route. It felt great. Sunroof open, windows down and just driving the car in the decent weather.

    Nothing special. No new top speed, no new quarter mile sprint, no new mods. Just realisation of being back in a decent car after being absent from it for two weeks. I'll never forget that...
