Hi guys,
New to the forum. Am wanting a second run a round car and one that i can develop my DIY car mechanics on. Looking at Grande punto 1.2 petrol as don't think i would want a diesel with some of the issues they can bring.
How easy are they to work on? I'm competent with brakes and basic servicing but what about the timing belt & clutch, how easy/hard would they be on one of these?
So really I'm after any advice on what to watch out for when buying a 1.2 petrol in the UK around the 2006, 2007 years.
Also, mileage wise am i ok going for a higher mileage, do they last?
And finally, what are the common issues on these cars?
Many thanks in advance....
