Properly nice!!

Stunning

What colour is it? looks like a moonstone/grey/purple mix? not sure i've seen one that colour, let alone a gt!

 

[Johnboiuk]

Cheers

Not sure on the colour

I thought it was unusual - it's not like any I've seen before either. I will have a look for the paint code and report back!

 

[blu73]

not the first mk1 Punto i seen in that colour but it sure is a rare colour

 

[Johnboiuk]

Paint code 662

Metallic ducale grey

Does anyone have any 97/98 brochures which suggest which models this colour was available on? Was it range wide or just the ELX/sporting/GT

 

[blu73]

Pretty sure it could be ordered on any spec model, but clearly it would have been more money to get a base model painted in a metallic colour so they will be uber rare (if any at all, even if there were so many mk1s have been scrapped)

That is stunning.

I'll check when I get home from work in the brochure about the colour.
I also have the press launch pack from lingotto in 1993, will have a look in there too

Fantastic thanks everyone for your help

Nice motor mate well done on the Purchase.

And yes you must of been the winning bidder on Ebay as I was watching and was going to stick a cheeky £2500 down but it went up a lot the last few hours.

Well done tho mate. What wheels did you take the car on?

So nice to see one with the original airbox and not a chavy sock filter.
