Got my Car on 19th Aug(since i am busy with my marriage on 23rd i was not able to provide you the updates)... updating the pictures shotly. The Experiance at FIAT dealer (Concorde Motors, Chennai) was amazing. They have send-off from the showroom was good with staffs standing with flags. The car is good and require minimum gear shifts for city driving. The car was good and stable at all speeds.

The only concern for city driving is the turning radius is big.

Hi Ashok,

Can you pls provide an update on the Punto 1.4
I suppose you have owned one for 2.5 years and your inputs on fuel economy, spares availability, spares cost, etc will benefit a lot of members/thread viewers.

Cheers

I have sold my Car and purchased Swift ZDI. If you are interested in Punto go-ahead as it has excellent Highway manners. Fuel Economy is on the lower side and i had faced a few issues with spares availability, cost of spares are normal compared to other cars. I find the 90HP(diesel) model to be better in the whole Punto stable and recommend for the same.
