Re: My Grande Punto - updated 26/9/2008 deep dish

Looks ace mate, loving the euro look!
Where did you pick up the wheels and whats the PCD of the punto?
Also how much is the car lowered.

Cheers
Reece

im not slagging you off here jamie, but......

the amount you have spent on your car, i would imagine you could of bought a more powerful engined car!!

the amount of stuff you've put in your car must be slowing it down too!!

though i have to admit, it does look quite tasty!

Re: My Grande Punto - updated 26/9/2008 deep dish

some peoples cars arent about speed. some dont want big power with brilliant handling.

some people just like to cruise in style.

and due to age poeple cant afford to insure more powerful cars with the tits that are on the roads nowadays.

tbh the moeny i spent on my GPS t-jet i couldve bought a more powerfull car.

You're right some people dont, however when this guy boasts about his speed in the corners etc... It makes you think he should have just got a more powerful car

you dont need a powerfull car to throw a car into corners. a well set up suspension layout and brakes will outdo the same car without those mods.
