tango'd grande punto

[RallyeMike]

Brought this earlier in the week as an every day car, to take the 106 rallye off the road.

Its not a bad motor at all, and haven't seen any other orange ones yet! It's the 1.9 jtd model.

There's an orange one driving around locally to my workplace, looks the bee's knees. They are such a fantastic looking car for a supermini, shame they ruined it with the Evo facelift.

did you bring it anywhere nice?

Looks the nuts that car! Was the 2nd option for me but i went for a white fiesta st instead. The petrol versions of the grande punto are poor performance wise but what's good about the 1.9 diesel version is that you can re-map it to near 200bhp! and you get about a million miles to the gallon!

Old driving instructor now has one of these as his learner car, beats the Pug 306 D he had 10 years ago

Yeah they are, even the turbo petrol is still only 120bhp, unless you get an abarth. I quite like the seats in that red one!

but yes a remap will be on the agenda in the next few weeks

Whats the fiesta like? i was only really looking at diesels or small turbo petrols due to economy!
