    Looking for a new car...perhaps a Fiat Grande Punto?

    Fiat are offering £1000 off a brand new car...you just print a voucher/coupon and take it to your local Fiat dealership.

    Sadly it's limited to just 300 so you'll have to be quick! Still any money off a new car can't be bad can it?

    Seems like a good deal provided you want a Fiat car!!

    i think 2 garage visits in 8 years is pretty reliable motoring.

    Thank god, at last we have comments from someone who actually has experience of driving Fiats....

    :T:T

    @ Wookie... I imagine in a month when the 57 reg comes out, those 07 pre-reg's will become even cheaper!

    Get real, nobody is going to pay 4k for a used Panda that cost £4850 new.

    They do though. :rolleyes:

    I've had a Fiat Stilo for almost a year now, has been to the garage once under warranty. I'm happy with it.

    i have had 3 fiats over the past 6 years. And apart from 2 trips to the garage in 6 years one being a fuse gone in the windscreen wipers that they fixed very quickly, another being a major fault and that was fixed very quickly and a very nice courtesy car given.

    I have had a seicento, a panda and i am currently driving the diesel grande punto 5 door.

    for their money they are great cars lots of extras on them, and i have to say the diesel is driving like a dream. I would definately buy another panda as i loved that car.


    If it were me i would negotiate a big discount at the dealer and then give them the print off voucher and see what they say!! :rotfl:

    I thought this was a thread about a £1000 off voucher - but what the heck. I have owned a Fiat Multipla (ugly but fantastic car) and two Ulysse (old model and new - made by the French). They were all good reliable cars but I have now got a Honda because of their reputation for reliability & good dealers (see below).

    At work I drive & ride BMWs - not that reliable, especially their bikes. And I seem to recall that in a recent 'owners' reliability study the bottom 10 cars were mostly French, two were Mercedes (yes I know they are a budget manufacturer - eh!) and last was a Landrover Discovery Mk3 (another budget manufacturer owned by Ford - eh!).

    My Honda has had more faults in the 6 months of ownership than all the Fiats put together, despite their reputation - and the Honda Dealer was no better than the admittedly crap Fiat dealers.

    Rant over.

    They do pay 4k for them and then think they've saved lots of cash because its 3k cheaper than the new RRP price. Thats the nearly new car market !

    I doubt you'll find many good deals on Japanese cars. They tend to be pretty expensive, especially when newly released.

    Agreed, only brands like Fiat give big discounts, there must be a logic there somewhere.;)
