Hmm not bad exterior styling. Although the interior is (as said above) cheap and nasty for the price range it’s in.

This car is cheap as chips in the UK (£10K new).
Nothing can touch it on performance or spec for that price in its class.

Great small practical car for the wife that I can also have some enjoyment in.

The Punto compares to the VW Polo not the Golf

Fiats Golf fighter is the Bravo/Ritmo

FO, the 0-100 time is to enable comparison between vehicles, just like the fuel economy figures now stuck on the screen of new cars.

And yes, it does become a more complete and better vehicle if its quicker. The time posted by the Fiat for $30,000 makes it poor value, since for a little more you can buy a 1.4L TSI Golf which is in a vastly different league, and there are a few vehicles referred to by Adam which are cheaper and also leave it for dead.

Amongst car enthusiasts there is very little interest in the slow race – the only place where the slowest time between 2 points is best is the motorcycle slow race.

Meh, looks good, but damn the figures are a little slow! The Polo GTi, Ralliart Colt, Fiesta XR4 etc will eat it for breakfast.
