Year 2000 FIAT Punto 1.2 'W' reg

Genuine 40,000 miles (VOSA test history)

Full MOT, had a wheel bearing and a couple of jobs.

The test history is class in a glass, it's had a metric shit load of work over the years

Taxed to get you home

Power steering with City button

Recent brand new battery

Not many frills, no central locking etc

Ace little car, has a few dinks and marks as you'd expect I reckon

 

Only niggle at the moment is a weird little clangle from the o/s/r wheel. Had a look tonight and we think the brake pipe insecure mention on the MOT is the issue so will try and secure it and see what it's like afterwards.

I'll have to get more pictures (obviously) but meanwhile drop by and view it etc by all means. It's not being used so pointless sat here and due to fatherly influence my daughter wants a Corsa in the new year.

 

£400 is, I think, a fair price given mileage and MOT etc. I don't especially want a swap, but I'm fickle at the best of times. Don't mind a raffle (sub ten quid a throw) but Sporty Shite was in first with his Toyota.

I don't want to buy it, but I do want to use the word "clangle" whenever possible. And for that, you get a bump.

Posted

No. Just saying like. 

 

Don't use the City button otherwise kittens will explode and nuns will fall over in shock.

 

Looks woefully ace and would make someone a grand runabout. Just not me.

Posted

The seats are a funky bright blue. But the mirrors look a bit awkward, so I'm out. 

GLWS.

My Fiat super* senses just clangled !

 

- these cars in the 1242cc 16v sporting variety are the chosen model for there revvy revvy quicky quicky go go engines for speeding up all sorts of underpowered Fiaty shite.

 

My Drive/garden/road outside house is full to the despair of my neighbours with Panda type chod, however I will take 7,8,48 & 41 please.

 

Fiat Punto Roffle = Ruffle with added fait accompli ;)

Posted

Cracking wee car. I hope you never meet my daughters...

 

Corsa's are not welcome here.

 

GLWTS.

Just to add to "these are fuggin great", between me and my mates we had four of these when we were 18-20 and they were GR8. Went all over the country in them. Of course my posh mate had the 1.2 16 valve with 80 odd bhp and leccy windows/central locking and a female friend had a Sporting 1.4 100 BHP which looked GR8 in white and I had to make do with a 58 BHP base spec that blew its head gasket.

Posted

I need to copy/paste the MOT history for it, the head gasket had been done amongst other stuff.

I'll grab some more pictures later in case anyone's interested.

Car needs better clean since these pictures plus I'll get some close ups of the marks on bodywork etc.

He's got a cat mate called Dave

The headlamp levelling fluid is on zero, and it needs instant pez. Also its twenty past 8 and still daylight so these pics are at least 34 days old. On this basis Ahm Oot.

Eyes down, look in (and spot the slightly blowing back box I forgot to mention :( )

    Also spot the lie about having all the previous MOTs, God knows what happened to 2003 and 2004. were they not on the computer system then?
     
     
    *Edit: I'm certain they were all on when I first checked a couple of months ago as one previous MOT mentioned the head gasket and something about it being repaired for the subsequent MOT pas????

What knobhead failed it in 2008 for low washer liquid?

And they say customer service is dead.

It's the seizing Safty catch in August 2008 that worries me.

Bugger me, It's Sherlock Holmes AICMFP.

I wonder what price that would be advertised at on a dealer's forecourt? Nice looking budget runaround, GLWTS.

Posted

Ah I see this one has the common rear numberplate deterioration issues...

 

Once that starts it's difficult to stop...

 

GLWTS!! 😃

From the car that just keeps giving, I forgot to mention the code has gone on the radio when I put the new battery on. But I'll include (though prob. not fit) a snazzy* aftermarket CD radio stereo for it.

Knocked this down to £350 as I could do with a cash injection at the minute. Happy to raffle if people wanted, but there's already 2 or 3 more on the go at the minute.
