General Spark Plugs Whereabouts?
hi welcome to the forum
8v or 16v i think the 16v plugs maybe under a cover they will be in the middle of the top of the engine, you might have to remove an airbox first, i havent seen a 16v punto engine in real life!
8v plugs are at the back of the engine.

I've had my 8v 1.2 two weeks now and still pondering where the plugs are. I can see HT leads disappearing under the air box, but not what they attach to - looks like the fuel rail...
The oil filler cap is somewhat odd looking too, more of a flap than a cap!

Yeah the plugs on the 8v are set quite low.
You'll need a socket with an extension bar - also mine took quite a bit of force to undo the first set.
Also - bear in mind that dirt etc can collect around the plug. Try to clean this area out BEFORE removing the plug. Use a hoover or compressed air etc to either suck or blow any dirt out.
And as a point to note - I used the Bosch Super 4 plugs on my 2003 8v(£19.99 from Halfords) and they're superb.
