Fiat Punto Hatchback 90 ELX 5d (1995/N) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Fiat are now 100 times better than used to be. Prices haven't caught on to that yet. Luckily!
Costs
I've always used a main dealer and never had any nasty surpises with the bill.

On the road
Driving
Drives well. Corners very well with decent tyres. Great fun.
Performance
1.6i engine is surprisingly nippy. A completely different experience to the small engined Puntos. You should try both.

Living with it
Reliability
I've done 64k in a little under four years and the only problem was an exhaust and a motor on the sunroof. You can't knock that. And they are mostly galvanised, so no rust!
Image
Italian styling wins again. Looks the part with alloys and small rear spoiler.
Comfort
Your back feels it on long distances, but not too bad.

Security and Service
Security
Standard immobiliser decent. But get a decent alarm fitted.
Service
Dealers have been excellent. It was a small family run dealer in Stoke. Service could not be faulty and prices reasonable.
