I think I am likely to be selling my RHD Fiat Punto team ed. 1998, about >90,000 miles on the clock, two careful female owners (including myself). Has been very reliable (have driven there & back to the UK, from the Dordogne on 3 occasions over the past couple of years, without any problem. Passed it's MOT, had a basic service (oil filters etc),& was fitted with a new cambelt in April, taxed until April 2016....Bodywork a few scratches etc.but no rust problems. Nice, cheerful mid Green Metallic finish and has a sunroof and new Stihl (?) locking roofbars.
Would be a great 1st car for somebody and I may end up offering it to my younger relatives at some point....
It's been a great vehicle...good for carting stuff around in and with the seats down the capacity for this is very good. I'm very fond of it ..(him - reg. starts VGB -> 'very good boy') and would like to keep him as a runabout in the UK...but that looks likely, not to be possible....(although, I haven't given up on that completely)...
I am undecided whether the best option would be to sell it here ... (even though the headlights would need to be changed and it's RHD, it shouldn't have any problem re the cert.of conformity).....I have not found it being a RHD to be a problem at all.....but I have always avoided Paris (which I think would be a 'challenge' too far), when going to & from the UK, even though I am very used to driving all over London....OR to drive it back to the Uk for the last time (which I would quite enjoy)...
I do know that 2nd hand cars hold their value much better in France.....Does that hold for RHD's at all ?
In the UK I have had a quote for around £450 value -wise.....
