The FIAT GRANDE PUNTO (2006-10) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.4 T-JET 120 SPORTING is a five-door supermini, competing with the Ford Fiesta, Vauxhall Corsa and Volkswagen Polo. Compact dimensions suit town driving and parking, while its rear doors and cabin make it more practical than a city car. The Sporting’s turbo petrol engine gives this otherwise sensible hatchback extra pace. It suits commuters and first-time drivers wanting an easy everyday car with a sportier feel, and small households needing usable rear seating. Italian styling helps it stand apart from more familiar rivals, while the Sporting trim offers a livelier alternative to basic superminis. As with any older car, check its condition and maintenance records carefully before buying. In mycarcheck.com checks, 186 look-ups covered 76 VINs; averages in this sample were £1,100 private-sale value, 85,000 miles, 8,000 miles yearly and about four previous keepers—useful context, not a guarantee for an individual car.
