'Cos ive got to kep paying my insurance after my bump going to look at a little run around for 3-4months. Cant find any semi decent cheap corsa's so i've found a, erm.. Punto

Little 1.2 75SX. N reg, just over 100,000. black 3 door. Good nick aparently.

What to look out for?

Apart from head gaskets and general wear on a 12 year old car.

Any specific problems with Punto's?

Fair enough. Couple my mates said that the 75 is the top 1.2 they do, PAS, rev counter etc. Doesnt sound bad tbh

If i'm posting something more useful...

A mate used to have a green one, same model. Cheap to run, was quicker than a 1.2 corsa, not a bad interior, and it lasted him for 30,000 miles before the headgasket went and he sold it.
