Driving
PAS is excellent, but driving is not always a pleasure. A back like a block of flats can cause erratic movements from rear of car. Handling generally sound. Gear change is ok, but not great.
Performance
Surprisingly fast, but lost efficiency. No problem with overtaking!

Living with it
Reliability
Uh-oh! Failed! Head gasket went when the car was 44,000 miles old! The steering belt broke... unimpressive!
Image
Attractive shape; Puntos generally considered 'cool'.
Comfort
The seat height adjuster was ideal, as was the steering wheel height adjuster. A very comfortable ride.
