Hi all,
I'm thinking about buying a Punto to replace my ailing ford escort that I got as a supposedly temporary replacement for my Uno that died a few years ago and have a couple of questions.
The Punto I am considering is a 1997(R) 60 S 5Dr with no MOT and hardly any tax that needs a new clutch but apart from that it appears to be rust free and; cosmetically and mechanically fine. It's being advertised at offers around £200. Looking on ebay I can get a new clutch kit for about £45 although I would need to get someone to fit it.
Is it an expensive job to have the clutch replaced?
What would be a reasonable offer to make for a Punto in this condition?
TIA
James
