Fantastic little engine. I can get anywhere between 13 and 90mpg out of it has so much torque compared to the Corsa too, excelent for accelerating up hills and overtaking.
The only thing is, you need to get used to it, but that too all of 10 mins. At junctions you need to give it a bit of rev if you want to pull away nice and quick because there is no power at all low down like on a petrol. Would recomend a car powered byt this engine to anyone!

i find it the complete opersite, there is more torque low down, so you dont need to built up revs before pulling away like you would in a petrol
to £30 i get 370-380 miles which is good IMO

I'm pretty sure the Punto will weigh a lot more than the Corsa too, it's big...

It's for the computer stuff, Blue&Me, Media Player and eventually sat nav.
I have seen some wheels I like. They are on some other Fiat, think they are 17". Would need lowering and that will invalidate the warrenty so can't really do that.
