Technical cost of repairs

[Elonas290]

HI there loyal Punto fans, just have a quick question... Is it expensive to repair your Punto??? I used to drive bmw e46 and to change a clutch have costed me a fortune... Is the parts for Punto as expensive as older beamers? And for what problems i should look out? I'm driving 1.2 small Punto

Mk1s are generally cheap and easy to repair (turbo cars and HGTs excepted). Quality clutch is about £50, fitting can be DIY or from £120 -- depending where you live. Parts availability is pretty good. Beware of the rust, but it's not generally as bad as older BMWs.

Don't let it overheat!
