Numerous posters and plasmas installed at key locations throughout the store will inform Harrods customers that Grande Punto has moved in, and is awaiting them!

The Fiat Punto has been a highly successful product since the original was launched in 1993. Voted European Car of the Year in 1995, it became Europe’s best selling car in 1997, and some 500,000 examples are on the roads of Britain today. The all-new Punto which goes on sale here next month, and which will shortly be seen in Harrods, has elegant lines courtesy of Italian design maestro, Giorgetto Giugiaro. It is built on a completely new platform, and is the largest and safest in its category, boasting the widest diesel engine range in its class, and a maximum 5-star EuroNCAP safety rating.
