Bye Bye punto!

[M21MFS]

Getting rid of the car. Fed up of it constantly being in for repair and useless twats doing half arsed repair jobs. ****s, the lot of them.

Car hunting begins saturday. Any ideas?! Dont even have an idea of budget, just depends what I can get for the Punto I guess. :roll: [-o<

is there much point?? ok say you get rid of your one for something of similar price, you may have the same problems fixing all the things that you have just fixed on your one!, although there's always helens :wink: :lol:

Surely it's not possible to have that much bad luck with one car in a year?!

Surely to hell.. :roll:

This is prob the best time to sell, its just got fresh mot (what about road tax~) so more chance to sell it on and hopefully to someone who is not a good haggler

people think oh iv got a vw iv got an audi its reliable, woopdy ****ing do, vw audi seat and SKODA are all made with the same parts,my mums beemer has been away for 8 weeks as they are waiting on a part from germany, see what i mean its hardly just a fiat thing, all cars have there problems. and the garages iv worked in have had cars come in with problems far worse than iv seen on any fiats, so they can all suck my root as far as im concerned,

I think it is justified owners are allowed to have a dig at Fiat, my Punto has been ridiculously unreliable, my mums Bravo has needed major work done (and still does) and also our past 2 fiats Tempra and Tipo both ended up in smoke. Also by looking through the forums the amount of problems people have is ridiculous, and thats on the new cars too.

All people need to do is look where Fiat have been financialy recently, nearly bankrupt, then trying to force GM to buy them out who pay them $2bn just to get rid of them. Now this will be a combo of things but mainly no one really wants their cars, they are not built to a high a standard as most nowadays, some putting Fiat in the same bracket as Korean manufacturers, and the prices dealers are trying to shift them at reflects this.
