hey all,

here's my car a 2003 Fiat Punto Active Sport,i got this back in October 2006 when my previous car a Bravo sx was starting to have engine electrical problems as they are known to have lol so i traded it in for this at the dealership i was doing my apprenticeship there at the time so i got a discount and all the extras thrown in free smile I know i may sound it but im not actually one of these NED's/Chavs who think there hatchback is a supercar in disguise as A.J.M can prove as he's my best friend so i dont race it cause even i'll admit its not that powerful so there's no point plus i like my clean license and 2 years NCB lol







Exhaust: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-qcFNrwh7-M
p.s. you may want to watch the volume as its kinda loud lol

Mods:

EBC GreenStuff Pads
12" Mutant Sub and Amp
Kenwood KDC-W4537UA Headunit
C+C Custom Mid-Section and Backbox

before anyone starts theres no point slagging me for owning a Fiat as i stripped it down (I was a mechanic)to check it all over before i bought it to make sure it was ok which it was as now 2 1/2 years later its not went wrong which most do.

thanks smile

Not really a styling mod really, is it?

What's the point in a Nurburg sticker if you haven't been?

Let's hope your driving is better than your typing and punctuation... Oh, and lose the sticker if you've not been.

Nice Fiat though!

well theres no need to be nasty, and to be fair on the scottish run i was keeping up if not outrunning some of the more powerful cars, whilst managing not to wreck my car...so my driving is actually quite decent.

I respect people's opinions but no-one has the right to tell me what to do with my car with my hard earned cash!

I've been to the 'ring, but my current car hasn't so it isn't stickered. I do have the sticker (bought from the shop in the car park at the Nordschliefe) which will go on when she's been round.

It might as well be a sticker saying "i'm a tt" otherwise.

All IMO of course smile

Please don't start one of these 'I'm a good driver because I can keep up with more powerful cars in my less powerful car' threads.

Personally, the car is nice and i like the colour too. However, I would have to agree with the 'ring sticker, as that type of decal is mainly used by people who have actually experienced it. It's a nice car, but you will get both positive and negative comments here, or whichever forum you post on. Just try not to start with the bragging. Reminds me of reading funnyimpreza's posts.
