My CM friend had a punto - loved it :clapping:

Small, but big inside IYSWIM. Changed to a doblo when she needed more boot room for her daughters wheelchair and buggies too.

We got a doblo too, well DH - as I don't drive. Brill for inside space and HUGE boot :thumbsup:

Must be a pretty old model for no power steering - I have had 2, my last one bought new in 2000 had full power steering with the city drive button (makes it as light as a feather for tight turns etc brill) but i thought the one before had basic power steering two?

I loved both and they were brill cars for everyday use - if i didnt need a humungeous car for childminding I would have another as you get alot of car for your money and they are cheap to run usually.

Our other car is a punto and I love it - it has a 'girlie button' for parking too.

Loads of boot space and nice and comfy.

Make sure that it has all the outstanding safety recalls carried out on it. Go to any Fiat dealer or even just call them up and give them your reg or last 8 of the chassis number and they will be able to tell you if there are any outstanding recalls on it.

Service departments wont always see the cars before a salesman sells them, so not always done.

I used to be a warranty manager for a Fiat/Alfa Romeo dealer in case you're wondering how i know pointless stuff like this.:D

Thanks again
