PuntoEm's Punto!

[Guest]

Yo guys, so I'm new on this forum, originally from FF but I've come over to the dark side ha!

My car is a 1.2 Active Grande Punto,
57 reg plate, Jan 08 registered,
Metallic Bolero Red (or burnt in some light)
Ummm, it's the bog standard model with multi spoke hubcaps and fake buttons on the centre console!
It was a demo car and had 9100 miles on the clock when I got it at the end of July, however it's now pushing 9800!
Plus it still smells like a brand new car (helped by AutoGlym odour eliminator)

So yeah, here are my before and after pics of the deep clean before the Castle Combe day!

Before:








After:







(those lines are the reflection of my back gate, not water marks!

Bit picture heavy but yeh, it took me 2 and a half hours with a bit of help from my sister's bloke and a pressure washer!

nice, i like 

Ta, I've heard alot about you and your poor punto, I hope it's gona be looking dapper again soon!


Btw guys, Sandy has already drawn up a list of things I should do to it, induction kit, back box, alloys, springs etc.. all of which will be appearing at some point along the line but I want to get 1 years no claims behind me first so expect some alloys next summer!

[halfpint]

emily. sounds like mods rubbed off on ya yesterday hehe. but defo get some no claims first.

[PuntoEm]

Yeah I deffo will, even my parents are accepting the fact I'm gona do stuff to the car! But yeh, they agree get some no claims, more experience, and do a bit of research into the mods before I do them!

[charlie Fett]

That sounds like a good thing to do there Em, also when the time comes add a chip as well that way you will get more from your induction kit and backbox as the chip sorts out your air/fuel mix and modifiysit slightly to give you that bit more UMMPH 

[PuntoEm]

hahaha alright stop stop stop! I can barely wait till next summer so stop tempting me!

[charlie Fett]

HAHAHA you know you want the mods!Give in give in! HAHAHA
