A few pics of my White Grande Punto

[Alex_gregory_uk]

Here are a few pics of my Grande Punto Sporting 1.9 JTD. Mods so far are lowered on Eibachs, standard wheels powdercoated gloss black, red painted calipers. A few more mods planned but nothing major. Feel free to comment positive or negative!!!!

Really liking that mate, really stands out in white! Wheels look spot on as well. Only thing I'd say is the back looks a bit plain, maybe needs a badge or two.

Mirrors look great but is that a glass roof or a black roof? Can't tell. Either way it looks good.

 

[Fletcher]

I quite like these, whats the 0-60 of it?

 

[leeds_182]

Looks alright from the front but not that keen from the back.

 

[Alex_gregory_uk]

Cheers mate, I took the punto badge off the back, I know what you mean about it been a bit plain. Will have to think of what I can do!!!

It's a glass roof, which opens as well.

 

[Alex_gregory_uk]

At the minute it's 130BHP and about 9.5 secs 0-60. I had one before and remapped it to around 170BHP and 0-60 drops to about 8. But it's the torque it gives it that is wicked

[seb]

take it to the ring and get a nice red sticker for the boot

looks really nice btw

 

[peter182]

looks alrite like the front not to sure about the bk, wots the tax on it

 

[sh33n]

Looks very nice in the first pic, is the roof standard?

Back looks a tad plain though.

 

[Hazza]

Looks liek a focus from the back, but does look nice in white!

Yes the roof is an optional extra

 

[Vish]

I just realised its cos the lights on the pillars so there is so much white. I was thinking you took the badge off lol have you got a pic of it on?

lol @ 'ring stcker. Think it would work tho.

 

[ChrisPearson]

I love white

 

[Alex_gregory_uk]

I have a pic somewhere with it on. I'll try and find it.

Any suggestions for the back then?

The roof is a £550 option, but well worth it, esp on the white I think.

Azure Blue FTW....

 

[Alex_gregory_uk]

Tax is band D which is £145 a year.

 

[Ian_182]

That looks really nice

 

[DazG]

Really sorry but I fecking hate it with a passion...






Lol! Only kidding, love the Puntos, especially the new ones! I had three before my R32 and Clio 182

 

[Darren S]

Now then. That looks really, really smart. I'd be very happy owning that. :approve:

I think it needs a little something on the boot though - it's just too bland on its own.

You could always confuse the hell out of people an put a CS sticker on there - lol!

Do they do any form of boot spoiler option for it?

Did you? Nice - I've rarely seen one of those. Like you say, it looks mint on the dark alloys with red GT badging.

Followed one the other day with a few lads in it. It was a broom yellow one (what else?) but I was in a works Mondeo at the time. Would have loved it if they had taken the bait if I was in the 182.

Such an awesome little car.

Congrats mate.

 

[daydotz]

not bad mate, but i dont see you binning 1.5 secs off your 60 time, thats 15% betterment and even with the torque the gearing wont change so id say 8.5-8.7 or so.

 

[Alex_gregory_uk]

Cheers for all the positive comments, I'm really happy with it and don't think I'll do much more except the remap!

 

[Ian_182]

I think the re-map is a good idea and your mid range is where you will notice a real gain

 

[Ben.]

really like that

 

[R20 CWH]

remap is a must, money well spent for the gains.

sure someone had a thread about a 182 v a remapped one of these

 

[theduck]

remap can be had for £200 so is definately a must tbh. I was thinking of having mine done but I am selling it so no point
