front cross member is removed to "service position", then you have access the the front of the block itself, then you start stipping it back until you have the cambelt off then you can get to the stat and water pump
Getting the bumper off a Metro with the front passenger side suspension collapsed is difficult but not impossible without a jack and the alternator on the Punto is dead easy (had to take it off whilst fixing the not so easy, without something decent to hold the engine up, clutch)
Still annoys me how on Subarus you need to remove the battery and washer bottle to change 2 of the spark plugs. Not sure how you get at the two on the other side.
Toyota is probably the worst car for over doing the design of holding things together.
Brackets to hold brackets to hold brackets to hold the thing you wanted to get at !
Flippin hate working on toyotas
