They’re dreadful little cars and the dealer network is even worse!
We spent more on fixing the missus’s Punto in 2 years than 5 Subarus in 20 years.
The engine will be great but the rest of the car lets it down.
We didn’t learn, and got a Panda to replace it. Spent nearly £400 last week and will be spending another £300 this week. Then selling the bastard!
Anyone want a 2006 Panda 4×4 ?
Check everything on the dashboard works properly. Check the rear lights for short circuits. Brake lights and indicators at the same time turn it into a disco as the connectors don’t insulate sufficiently.
Rear shock, top bushes go quickly,
Does the engine smoke? They are just asking to be ragged!
Gearbox crunches, esp into reverse,
just off the top of my head…
