Hello from Manchester
« on: June 29, 2010, 08:15:04 PM »
Hi

My name is Mark and I have placed an order for a new Grande Punto Abarth Evo in white, with sunroff, climate, the abarth logo stickers on the side of the car, auto windscreen wipers and tthe electrochromatic mirror. Have ordered for September delivery

It is an upgrade from the 1.2 Punto Sporting i am driving at the mo!

i have owned a Peugeot 306GTI6 prior to that so am used to a speedy car!

Will let you all know what it is like - am looking to try and get a test drive in 1 over the next few weeks.

Hi all

Thanks for the welcome.

Am waiting till September to pick up the New Reg.

I have got the car in white, with the Red Stripes. With the sunroof, auto windscreen wipers, auto dim mirror, climate control, came to £18285.

Got £2000 part ex though - Luke did me a good deal at Millets. Could not knock anything off the car, but gave me more Part Ex.

Will let you know how it goes!
