Like everything about this. All the usual 205 foibles seem to have been addressed, and I'd wager it drives just as well if not better than the garaged, one owner low miler cars at more than double the asking.

Wonderful little cars. Best hot hatch ever IMO.
Silver suits it too.

About Half the price of an uno turbo. Admittedly 5K for an uno is expensive, but its similar to saying the price of an m3 is a lot of money for a 3 series

I actually went to view the 2102 this afternoon. Made an offer lower than the (very nice) guy was willing to take.

I'm still tempted, but it is very crusty looking 2 years aftre a re-spray. Worries me that after another winter of use it will look really bad.

It's a solid enough car though and goes and stops as well as a 70's Lada could be expected hehe

Like I say, just worried about the quality of the prep/paint it had.

Not really since regular Puntos were pretty st and it's not as if the Turbo is thought of too highly, which is probably why there so rare.

You could get a decent fun hatch with a bit of style for that money. Not hating it but rarity does not equal value.

It does seem like perhaps he's getting out before it needs a decent amount of work done again and it's money you wouldn't get back. Cool car though.

It's got a couple of annoying/slightly trivial faults the seller should have got sorted.

High idle speed may not be just a case of twiddling a screw....airleak ?....and the drivers window is duff.

Allowing for those I don't think £3k is a bad price for a decent 1.9 though.

There's this shiny black one at similar money with some niggles too;

When did you last see a Fiat Tempra? I'd almost forgotten they ever existed.

If you want your Mini with leather and air-con this is surely the way to go. Beanie and Aussie accent optional.

Barely used.

Swap the white one for the silver one up the page ?

I've already got a silver car.

About 170bhp I think.

However, with a relatively cheap (off the shelf) manifold and supercharger kit, theyll make an easy and very reliable 350+bhp.
I'm pretty sure that by the time that one was, made, the 5.0 had cracked 200bhp. That's a late Tuned Port Injection. The older Throttle Body Injection cars were much lower though
