They don't do them in white as standard (you have to order them specifically in that colour), so there's not as many around as with other colours.

TJVickers have a 57reg one on autotrader at the moment fro £9500 but you should be able to negotiate that down quite a bit:

Re: White Grande Punto Sporting

I have seen a couple on autotrader, I think the white GP only looks good in the sporting varient. and Theres a guy who just got his alloys powder coated in black and in my personal opinion is the best gp on the side except for the red one with powder coated black alloys.....if you go onto www.buyacar.com you can spec one up and may be able to afford one brand new. Which may be a better option good luck I wish I was you , I have to stick to my 1.2 Active, still good cars though

Re: White Grande Punto Sporting

I had a ring round today & managed to get a white sporting with dark tinted windows and subwoofer for £9595 brand new. Im quite happy with this cause my local dealer was chargin me £13000. Just got a couple of problems tho. I live in Northern Ireland & I would have to travel to derby to pick it up. Also, I hafta get rid of my Ford SportKa 1.6 first. Thinkin bout just ordering the GP Sporting and hopin that I can flog my SportKa in the 10weeks it will take for it to arrive.

Re: White Grande Punto Sporting

Mine was really hard to source and luckily it was ordered by a garage as they knew white was in demand. I found it and got my local dealer to get it transported to them. Just keep an eye out on autotrader and even ebay as thats where I found mine.

Re: White Grande Punto Sporting

I'm still trying to decide whether to go for the Exotica Red or white. Problem is, I know I don't clean my car as much as I'd like to think I do - especially in winter, and I'll just end up driving around in a right mud bucket

There's quite a few white ones around at the moment (my local dealer had a handful he could get his hands on for me if I so wished), but I just need to get them to agree on the right price now...

The real reason is you just don't want another Exotica red one zipping around Derby...
