I've only had my Mk1 55s on the road 3 weeks & last night someone tried to break in to it in my driveway. Both lock barrels are b******d although they still work & the top of the drivers door was forced out about 2 inches. They did not get in to the car. What's the attraction of an old Punto 55S? I thought it was the later performance & modified cars that were usual targets.
I told the cops & got a crime number & they said a scene of crime officer may come round - MAY!
I've bent the door back into shape & the locks work somewhat reluctantly so I can use it OK but I'm going to have to get a couple of lock barrels. eBay or a Fiat dealer? It's a pre red key model luckily.
What's with Punto's? I've had loads of cars the only other one I had nicked was an old Range Rover & I was pleased that went it needed a £600 gearbox job & the insurance paid up a good price for it!
