Ok after initial talk of maybe getting a punto GT for a runabout...there has been some new developments...I have to decide between the 2 cars above...there a plus and minus sides to both cars...such as the punto is newer with less miles...and the 306 wont cost me a penny to run as my dad can supply me with free diesel to run it...so can anyone tell me comparative stats etc...and what you would choose?

I am edging towards the 306...its a lot more car for the money...plus will receive a free tank of diesel a week...with being in uni this seems the logical choice...

You must be a spanner short of a tool set if you went for a punto sporting over a 306. The HDi is a really good engine and the whole car is much more solid. Handling is excelent on 306's aswell. As for resale vaulue, the punto will be worthless within a few years (if its not already ) whereas the 306 will still give you something back when u come to sell it.

Exactly...the fiat would only cost me buttons to run anyway...but free fuel is a bonus...my dad has been saying to me since the age of 17 to buy a diesel....
