Very low miles, alot of money for a Fiat Punto ;)

Can't say it has grown on me over the years, I would have one if I had the money to waste but it is not on my list of cars I would like to own. However the soundtrack is another matter!

I will own one in my lifetime, may be a few years yet though! Saw one in this colour at Knockhill and it made me want one more!

They are nice enough but there are other cars I'd buy if I had that sort of money.

For an extra £1k you could have a much newer one - http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/mg/sv/as-new-2011-completed-mg-xpower-sv-fabulous-opportunity/364992

I've been lucky enough to have a seat in the one the Dreadnought look after (also red hot, probably the best colour) and it is nice.

Nice rare car for the money

That black one is not worth half the asking price to be honest, it's not genuine and half the bits in it aren't correct.

And cheaply made it most certainly wasn't. Full carbon pre-preg body is never going to be cheap, and certainly when you get a look at one up close the body is very well manufactured.

what you have to remember is that it's a luxury sports car from nearly 10 years ago... standards were slightly different back then

I wonder if the immobiliser problem has been fixed...
