Hi guys,

I'm new here. just register 5 minutes ago. The things is I'm a little bit
crazy on fiat punto. I've been to many showroom on many car but punto is
still my favourites. Planning to buy the car, but don't have much budget
yet. Shy

Rumors says that the spare part is hard to find and the price is a little
bit high. Is it suitable for long distance drive about 8 hours? I'm a
little bit naive on engine spec and everything.

Please you guys help me.?? Thank you

Mawar,

Yea, Krag is right. So far so good.
Wat we(the owners) written here might seems to get you wondering but i can
tell you this, that we share the information with each-other and wat need
to take caution and up-grade our know-how.

If you think too much and afraid of this and that, better get Protons !! Wink

every moment... except when some 'little' hiccups happen....hehehe! But go

cicobecky, hmmm negative comments? not too sure about that, but that was what i
ahve heard too. but i am driving a FIAT now and i have no regrets and as a matter
of fact, i will upgrade or downgrade to either Alfa Romeo or Fiat as well. we have
surplus of garages here in KL, reliable and reasonable garages. if you are looking
for a good HGT, i have a friend who wants to sell it. he's upgrading to a family car,
not too sure which one hehe. and please join us at www.italiaauto.com to learn
more.
