Olgit's Punto

[Guest]

Hello me again Olgit, thought I might as well tell you all about my new FIAT purchase. Well after selling my Cinquecento Sporting so my daughter could have more room for her little son Tyler's stuff, buggys and all the usual bits and bobs (things ya do for ya kids sell ya car) thought yeah I’ll get another FIAT easy, lets look for a Punto Sporting. easy, NOT! The amount of cR*p about for the money people wanted was stupid, so I started looking about and came across this sorry gotta say it  a BMW compact but the good thing was the seller had to sell it quickly, because his company had given him a new SAAB Turbo as a company car and where he lives he only had one allocated parking place. So after he kept moving the BMW from his flat to outside his girlfriends flat around the corner to her parking place, which he was not allocated,  the council caught up with him.So his BMW had to be sold quick or they were going to tow it away. Anyway I got it mega cheap 250 quid with a years MOT and 3 months tax but you can read that story and see the car on another thread on here I am the new German in the zee kamp.
 Anyway after a while decided I can't run this BMW anymore. I just couldn’t get to like it even though I have owned BMW’s before quite happily. I just couldn’t connect with it plus I wanted my Punto Sporting. So put the BMW up for sale a guy came around put 600 quid in my hand without even test driving it first. He just wanted a BMW. So start looking again, yup for a FIAT, i have the famous FIAT virus like the rest of you.  
     Then going through the ads came across a Punto Sporting in broom yellow (which was what I wanted) went and looked at it got it, now well happy again I’m back with a FIAT. I might mod it a bit with just a roof/tailgate spoiler and 16inch alloys when the funds allow me to, so far I’ve just put some clear repeater lens on.
     hope you like my new ride.
pics to follow shortly.

loads better than the beamer. Tidy, clean and a FIAT.

[olgit]

Cheers mate, and its typical FIAT keep ya wondering, like whats that rattling noise & why is it making that noise, then when there is no noise's or rattles and it all feels right ya think this is why I got FIAT, good 'n' it   

[halfpint]

most defo. but you have to admit they are very reliable, they only tend to get minor hitches 95% of the time. when it is running great you wait for the next thing to play up.

[fullpint]

I do like the Mk1 Punto's..

[STU?]

its my cars dad ha , she is very nice mate best colour too  u shud do the wheels black

[olgit]

Cheers STU  was thinking of doing wheels black as it goes are they supposed to be matt or satin black if I do them I have seen some that look like a satin gunmetal grey also....you've gotta do a feacher on yours b4 ya sell it if ya still gonna

[halfpint]

haha you and black wheels stu. he was gonna do a feature martin but no time with college.

[olgit]

Do STU's next then if he has time to write it up with collage, I know what thats like time with collage stuff my Joe the same with his stuff , funny though always fines time to play COD Modern Warfare 2  half the night on XBOX 360   .
And I like black wheels too but only on certain cars  

[charlie Fett]

hi dude, that looks a nice clean example, I bet you are well pleased. I have a 360 too add me M15TER47

[olgit]

Do you play that game also Chas if so I'll tell my boys cos they are well into it especially my older son Joe he has rank quite high on line in the game I,ll get them to add you

[STU?]

will get it done soon, I’m sure sandy will let me have next quarter , gunmetal gray would look spot on, do 1 just in black and 1 in gunmetal to c what u like best (cheep tins), then do em properly, I did it with ma sei but decided to go with black over a refurb in silver n never regretted it. God I miss that car

[olgit]

You've have to get another Sei STU its gotta be cheaper for ya to run, I know how bad it is for younger drivers cos my daughter she is nearly 21 and some of the quote I got to put he on my Punto was taking the  , my son who is 17 got a good quote on his 125cc ped fully comp but the excess was more than the insurance itself so basically if anything happend to it they dont pay out they just keep the excess cos the ped was worth less than the excess my youngest 14yo better stick to his BMX 

[halfpint]

oh yes, stu as soon as you get a car sorted you get the next quarterly feature.
