my mechanic said motoricaly punto never will break down because its such a simple vehicle there is almost nothing to break down, the only problem i have is the electronics, mainly in winter but otherwise a perfect little car

we have a near 24 year old one, bought new, Feb 2000, 4-door, 1.2 16V HLX. Still runs like a dream after 230,000kms. Only wear parts changed, and a couple of rust spots fixed.

i have it on the house at the sea. It had some problems like powersteering and battery gone last year, and in 2021 we changed the head because on a roundabout it stopped and when it restarted later had the temperature to the stars. We after found out that a water tube was punctured.Those problems probably are because the car is used 3 weeks and then is abandoned for 11 months.But despite everything i love that car i would never give it away

I want to say that aside from being enjoyable to POV driving video enthusiasts, this video is also very useful for anyone that is considering buying a Punto but has still not driven one. One can get a bit more idea what' the car like.

i only have a 1.2 8v punto mk.2 (after facelift), the litthe thing is 19.20 years old, little rust and electronics dont like winter but otherwise no problem at all recently i found the manual for it and i am amazed what a car it was back when it was introduced, my main goal with my punto is upgrade it to the fully, or close to fully equipped variant, it deserve it
