hi new to group i am considering buying a year 2000 punto with the 1.2 engine. i see from other sites that the cylinder head gasket is prone to blow and other things seem to generally break. what is the view here
many thanks paul n
The headgasket is a weak point in my Punto (first model), dont know if that is the same for the new model....
cylinder head gasket = koppakking Niet dat mijn kennis van Engelse termen voor auto onderdelen zo goed is, maar deze wist ik toevallig :-)
My old Punto (one of the original ones) needed a new head gasket after
110,000 miles but I can't be too upset with that. What I was upset with was that I had to have a new oil sump fitted after 120,000 miles because it had corroded (how can something that swims in oil corrode?)Regards
