CommentWhen this car first came out I was at 6th form and wanted one immidiately. Unfortunately I could not afford one and the insurance was also out of my league. After owning a number of poor man's cars, I bought a new punto and stepped onto the ladder. When looking at buying the punto I could not keep my eyes of the coupe in the showroom. When I found I could actually fit in one I was over the moon and knew the next car would be a coupe, somehow...
In Jan 2002 it finally happened and I am rediscovering what it is to drive a car.
Need to learn more about it now.
