Fiat124sport Neutral Newbie October 16, 2005 Share October 16, 2005 is aveo or punto faster? Can do a comparison of the 2 cars? Er.......hard to compare leh..... Which aveo? Auto/manual? 1.4 or 1.5? Which Punto? 1.2 Auto/ 1.8 Manual? Quite impossible to compare as you can see. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well...the Punto picks up pretty fast, considering that its a 1.2 CVT. Stick with the 14 inch rims that they give you - pick up and FC should be excellent. Interior space wise, the Aveo wins. No doubt about it, the Aveo is a bigger car (physically) than the Punto. If your concern is road tax and petrol, get the Punto. For me, switching from the Aveo to the Punto is indeed very 'wallet-friendly'. I don't see why a small family like yours shouldn't be able to fit into the Punto Look for Brandon at TTS.

Mnphosis 1st Gear October 16, 2005 Share October 16, 2005 clearly, the punto is an excellent choice, a much more involving drive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fiat124sport Neutral Newbie October 16, 2005 Share October 16, 2005 The Aveo picks up faster of course, since its a 1.4 manual. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't know if the Punto Grande will actually make it here. Maybe it would eventually, but it might take some time. Anyway, Punto Grande's bhp is rated at 65bhp(1.2) and 77bhp(1.4). The current Punto we have here is 80bhp(1.2) . Still want to wait for the Grande? heh.....heh..... The boot is not too small, but if you're switching from a sedan, then it does take some getting used to. I've run about 6K+, not fully run in yet, but it's getting better everyday.

Hicksau Neutral Newbie October 17, 2005 Share October 17, 2005 okay.. wouldn't want to get the grande yet .. but boot being not too small meaning? prams ? mother inlaws? sometimes we have to fit both in the boot .. (just kidding on the mother part) and of the fc now after you about to run in? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(just kidding on the mother part) and of the fc now after you about to run in? Prams should not be a problem, not the super bulky ones though. Fuel consumption for me now is 13.5km/l, considering that it isn't fully run in and the fact that I'm on 15" rims Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
