Does the Punto have rear AC vents like the Linea? it's not mentioned in the features list.

dude131 · 17th June 2009, 21:10

GTO has finished reviewing the Punto but is unable to post the review due to probabily some confidential clause from FIAT or some Auto mag who has exclusive rights.
Guess he must be now reviewing another "model"

at the post launch party.

You were comparing with i20 Asta(0) Which having side and Curtain airbags too and the same is not available with GP

p'arth · 17th June 2009, 22:38

Looks like only a Swift Zdi can help Maruti survive the Punto onslaught.

pradster · 17th June 2009, 22:52

Went and had a dekko at Sanya automobiles, they had a grey punto getting cleaned and stickered up to be the test drive car. it was late in the day so could not get a test ride. But they do have the car and they will give me a ride tomorrow for sure!

The car looked yummy and already had a crowd of admirers while it was being cleaned, no wonder the guards wanted to put the cover on it and hide their precious till tomorrow!

Sorry could not take pictures as I was too busy drooling!

I could not make head or tail from your post. It needs waay too much effort to decipher. But i can tell you one thing, the prices for the swift are totally wrong. Not sure about the petrol, but the VDi retails for around 5.17 Ex showroom whereas the VDi+ABS is around 5.42.

But they do have the car and they will give me a ride tomorrow for sure! The car looked yummy and already had a crowd of admirers while it was being cleaned, no wonder the guards wanted to put the cover on it and hide their precious till tomorrow! Sorry could not take pictures as I was too busy drooling!

BTW, just saw an ad in Pune Mirror today, Palio 1.6 : 4.04 L and 1.3 : 4.12 ex-showroom pune. Does that make 1.6 for @ 4.52 OTR pune and 1.3 @ 4.60 OTR pune? I am really bad at math, Pune guys correct me, if I have done wong math. Last edited by amya : 17th June 2009 at 23:20.
