29.08.2006 Hobart’s Wrest Point Casino has taken delivery of the first Fiat Grande Puntos to arrive in Tasmania

Hobart’s Wrest Point Casino has taken delivery of the first Fiat Grande Puntos to arrive in Tasmania so that guests can take a punt on driving off in Fiat’s all-new small car in the Casino’s spring promotion.

"It’s not often that we can reward our loyal patrons with such new and exclusive prizes,” says Mike Davey, Acting General Manager at the Wrest Point Casino. “What is even more exciting is that there will be no less than five opportunities over a six week period for someone to become one of the first new Fiat Punto owners in Tasmania.”

“With the announcement that the Fiat Punto has been awarded a five star ANCAP safety rating, the Punto is also a safe bet on the roads, too,” says Mr Davey.

Mike Davey of Wrest Point Casino receives the keys for one of five brand new Fiat Grande Puntos from Leon Joubert of Performance Automobiles of Hobart. The new Puntos can be won as jackpot prizes at the casino during September.


Saving fuel is also no gamble with the Fiat Grande Punto, with the advanced turbo diesel Punto 1.3 JTD the most fuel efficient conventional car in Australia with an official fuel consumption figure of just 4.6 litres per 100 km and with prices starting from a recommended retail price of AUS$19,990, it doesn’t require a big stake to get behind the wheel of the new Grande Punto.
