My Fiat Punto MJD 90HP - 4 years & 51000 km EDIT: Now sold!

Congrats on the Punto. Nice price too!

The door handles are chrome right?

And if the bikes are what I think it is, no wonder you didnt want a car

What is the month and year of manufacture of your 90bhp mini Maserati?

No, there is no 'Blue & Me' sticker. I'm told that it is now available only as an accessory for Rs.250.

Edit- Please post some pics of the interiors including the center console. Yes, there are many pics but the more, the better.

Wow....1st 90Bhp Punto for the forum. Many Many Congrats. May the tribe grow.

OT: That is a mean bike in the background. Can we have a better look?

Sheel · 15th August 2010, 00:18

Beautiful and one of the best Cars to buy today at that price,

^^See a Motorcycle parked with after market exhaust, initially thought it is a 'blade, but then a look at the swing arm dismissed my thoughts.

The bike in the background belongs to my BILs and its pic has appeared in our forum a few times:

Happy ayi

Going OT, what do you ride?

And as Kavesh asked, why 90 and not the 75?

FlyingSpur · 15th August 2010, 01:40

A 90hp looker of a hot hatch as your first car? Yummy. And yes, for a person like you the EPS of the i20 is a compltete no-no

no wonder you eliminated it. Nice write-up.

prince_pervez · 15th August 2010, 03:56

Beautiful car! Congrats on your latest possession. Drive safe.

15th August 2010, 04:53

Congratulations and best wishes, StarrySky, on becoming a proud owner of Punto. Stunning photographs of equally stunning car!

roadracer · 15th August 2010, 07:48

Congrats and the write up was good. Could you post pics of the rear leg room space?

Newpunter · 15th August 2010, 09:11

Congrats on buying an awesome car. Hope you enjoy a lot of miles on this.

kiren · 15th August 2010, 10:44

Dear Starrysky,

Congrats on your Punto 90HP. The first one on Team-BHP. Enjoy the ride & Drive safe.

Cooleo · 15th August 2010, 12:15

First Fiat Grande Punto 1.3 Mjd 90 Bhp on TBhp!

Congrats man!

Will be looking forward to your updates and long-term ownership review before I take the plunge and get mine on Diwali! (In RED though!)

OT - On the other hand, does anyone have any info if Fiat's gonna launch the GP with the 1.6/1.9 Mjd in the near feature ?

extreme_torque · 15th August 2010, 13:16

Congrats dude!
Two things one of which I always mention in a Punto thread.
1. Get rid of hyson stickers from the back and the rear window
2. Get rid of the mudflaps right away, they spoil the lines of the car, especially the rear three quarter.

Utopian · 15th August 2010, 13:53

Congrats starrysky for the Punto. As always it looks ravishing in white.
As already said get rid of the dealer stickers. An eyesore they are.
Happy mile crunching with the Fiat.
