Hello everyone :)

[Caveman]

Hello everyone ! , as you can see I'm new here and first I'd like to say thanks to all the guys that are working hard (im pretty sure) to keep this site running.
I saw that here is where all the new guys are posting their "Hellos", so I thought I'll do it here too.
I'm a huge fan of the Top-Gear and Fifth-Gear shows and since I can't really watch them on TV here in Israel, this site is just great for me

I'm 19, I live in Israel in a town called Ness-Ziona (not much to do there :? ) and I drive a 2001 Fiat Punto. That 16v version with the 80bhp. One day I'll buy me a nice small sporty hatchback, but that will happen in few years time i believe.
Anyway, just wanted to say hello and that I think I'll like it here

EDIT: I'll take a photo of the car soon. Don't know why I havn't did that till now.

I like the Punto Abarth!

Someone from Israel adds to the diversity of the forums. This is becoming less a North American forum and more a worldly one.

Welcome!

 

[Cruzz563]

I like the Punto Abarth!

Here in Israel we got an HGT model which I think is the same as the Abarth.
To be honest, that was the model I had in mind when I was thinking about buying a Punto. BUT since my mom found me my new love , before I got my hand on an HGT, I ended up owning that one you see in the pics

 

[Jostyrostelli]

Yes HGT is the same, I guess...we have them both
It's a good car, but a little but expensive, I'd save my money for some nice expensive larger car
My mum drives a Punto 3-door and we've had no problems with it in 4 years now, it's a reliable nice car.

Welcome!

the Punto is one cute car, I had never seen the Arbath version before though
