Punto

Breadcrumbs

Looks incredible, drives well and priced competitively too. Needs better engines.

Comfort

Stays composed on all kinds of roads.
Performance

Petrols aren't the best around. Diesels, though noisy, are more fun.
Cool

Maserati nose, Aston lights. The only cars cooler are called Maserati and Aston Martin, maybe.
Quality

They may not look so, but are durable. Finishing and feel are lacking, though.
Handling

A Punto around a corner is like a leech on your skin.
Practicality

Legroom behind the driver is cramped. Otherwise could be a five-seater. Boot is spacious.
Running costs

Petrols are average, but diesels are pleasingly stingy. Get a lot of features for the price.
