I'm going to the motor auctions today to see if I can get hold of one for the wife. Quite a selection available...
FIAT PUNTO 55 S N 52316 GREY
FIAT PUNTO 55 S P 29501 BLACK
FIAT PUNTO 55 S M 69438 RED
FIAT PUNTO 55 SX P 110023 RED
FIAT PUNTO 75 SX N 60905 RED
FIAT PUNTO S M 76000 BLUE
My concern is that with cars over 5yrs old they are all bought 'as seen'. I know a fair bit about cars but as I can't drive it (or even look under the bonnet) before I buy, I'm a tad worried about gearbox/clutch problems etc.
Does anyone have any pointers on anything in particular to look out for on these cars?
Also, am I right in thinking all the 55's on the list will be 1.1 8v and the 75 will be a 1.2 8v??
Any comments much appreciated.
