Decided it was time to get rid of the Nova when I heard my pal was selling his very clean Punto Sporting.

1997 Punto Sporting
3 owners from new
67,000 mile
Fully painted last year
Had new doors & wing.
Sportex cat-back exhaust
Lowered -60mm all round.

That's pretty much it, its been well looked after.. actually enjoying it more than the Nova

Some pics.

Heard all the Fiat jokes under the sun and only owned it since Monday night !

Cheers Dave

That's what I love about it, never see them! I've seen a silver base model 5dr local but thats about it.

Forgot to mention has the GT Front Bumper. I've been given basically a full GT apart from the shell.

Everyone's very surprised but needs must.

I'm already on the hunt for a company to make up original dealer number plates, not a fan of the pressed ones so getting ones with the Fairbairn Fiat logo to go with the rear window sticker and tax disc holder. Decat is on the cards too.

Not done anything to it apart from wash it and take a few pics with the GoPro

Once I've got a wee bit of money saved I'll start putting my own touch on it.

I reckon the gt will be a good car as an investment. What sort of price do they fetch atm?

Not sure, the hard part is finding one, they were all fucked with 00's fiberglass bodykits.

Still not done anything to it.

Going to get a service done on it next weekend

Yesterday I was on my way to a hotel for a night with the misses and we had some time to kill so thought I'd go grab some pics at a scrapyard near by, quite liked the big 'For Scrap' sign..

Here they are!

Then I gave it a good clean and a coat of PoorBoys polish when I got back !

Cheers
