    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Not at all reliable!! I've been the owner of the Punto Sporting for 5 months and it's been in a service centre 5 times, for a total accumulated time period of 1 month - each time, same problem!!

    Good looking. A little less branding would be nicer; Fiat branding appears on wheels and bumpers.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Spacious, plenty of head and legroom. Not too generous in the rear of the car for extra passengers. The headroom and legroom there tends to be significantly less.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    2 out of 5 2.0

    Immobiliser and steering wheel lock. Possibly more could be done in terms of alarm to protect this car, considering its sporty appeal.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Appaling level of service. No courtesy car, no hire car when my own has been serviced/repaired. Inability to properly resolve a recurring problem.
