Just sold the old girl for £4700, so HA to those who scoffed at my price telling me it was too much for a 1.2! Only kiddin

Got meself a brand new Punto HGT so hopefully no more whiney 1.2 in my ear, just a roar and a fast climbin speedo!

Well saxo VTS = 120bhp and the flippin sunroof rattles when I shut the doors on the one I test drove! Shoddy build or what ..... anyway the HGT has 130 and is built a hell of a lot better.

Plus I only paid £9000 for a brand new 'un.

I don't care if he got free insurance! The sunroof still wobbles like a piece of cardboard when you shut the doors, like a 120bhp tin o'beans

I like the newer shape Puntos more than i do the old. BEst mates birds got a 1.2 16vv. 6 Speed box, comfyish.

Agreed the 1.8 16v engine isn't the fastest in the world, but im sure more could be extracted if wanted.

Couldn't see a Saxo runnign 320bhp odd (As featured this month)

I like em, not the quickest ever cars, but still ok
