Hiya all, picked up a 2006 red Grande Punto Sporting on 112k miles for £600 as a runaround while I sort out the remains of the turbo on my old Volvo V40. So far so good, it's had a recent cambelt, water pump and EGR valve - though the boy managed to break the passenger door release straight away (new mechanism on order).

It's a bit grumpy about starting, give it a couple of glows and then it takes a bit of cranking to fire up, with white smoke. Will check out the glow plugs (please tell me they're not well buried!)

Anyway, hello all. :p

Tony

It's not my first Fiat, I had a Fiat Tempra estate 1.9 many moons ago and I loved its quirky dash with digital boost pressure gauge. Distracted me form the road a bit that did. Sadly the tin worm took over on that car!
