Just wondering if anyone's had a drive in this car? Thinking about one to replace my Fiesta 1.25. Is the 1.2 engine painfully slow or actually not too bad in the old rev-the-nuts-off-it Italian small car way?

Also had a look at the Mitsubishi Colt, £5k ish to spend. Any other ideas? Read more

1.4 would be better but i want to keep the budget as close to 5k as possible and 56/07 plate at the oldest. If the 1.2 is good on the test drive i may just go for that as I adhere to the small Italian car philosophy that you should rev the nuts off them then change gear. Although a 3 hour trip to University may command the 1.4. Tough descicion!

Also, is the Blaupunkt system in the Punto any good?
