I have recently purchased a mini cooper s and i was comming back from work and i heard a dump valve behind me.Pulled up at lights and thought i will smoke him but he got in front by a lot and i am really disapointed in my purchase and i was givin it everything but he got away very very dissapointing.:(

Oh yeh forgot to mension it was a yellow punto gt with a private plate sayin turbo.Thinkin of buying 1 now a lot cheaper as well.

Punto,s dont have the style or flair of the mini.  Who is going to ask you about or admire a Fiat punto? Hope i'm right in thinking that yours is a 1275cc.  The punto is bound to be a 1400cc so you can expect the mini to be a bit slower.  Bet he can't drive round corners as fast as the mini...  Point to point i'd say you would thrash him.

My mistake, just realised your note was written in the new MINI section, the punto could not have been standard. If you were in a new MINI Cooper S then you should had him off the lights easily, unless the punto has had some serious mods.
