Im 19 so dont have much choice at the moment! Ive owned her for about 5 months now nothing has went wrong, all ive replaced is front brake discs & pads, new alloys & a back brake caliper! It does me as a run around, just want to know what everyone thinks? Let me know!

Nice first car mate, a bit of constructive criticism if i'm honest, remove the chrome number plate surrounds, and remove the hatch spoiler, they make the car look a little chavvy.

Just being honest mate, when i was 19 my car was proper chavv'd up

That spoiler isnt my cuppa tea but not bad apart from that.

Looks good but agree that the spoiler isn't cool.

Take off the spoiler, the sticker, the skirt and put the old lights back on and you'll have a lovely motor there!

My first car was a Punto. Great car, loved it. And for a Fiat it never put a foot wrong.



As you asked what do we think - I like it. However, if I was you i'd get rid of the aftermarket back lights and the spoiler. Remove the stickers and the number plate surrounds too.

You could invest in a set of clear side repeaters. Surprisingly enough, when I was 19 mine wasn't chav'd up - IMO.

As above mate, loose the spoiler, number plate surround and rear lexus style lights and definitely the stickers and it will be a nice little motor. Less is more.

The "shocker" sticker really isn't funny at all

I had a Sporting as my first car...



in fact, I bought another identical one after I sold the first one and couldn't find a better car for the money (insurance included!). Didn't set the world on fire but I had great fun in it and it taught me some respect for physics...

They are an attractive little bugger these things. Though I would change the lights back to standard, remove the stickers, the spoiler and the chrome numberplate surrounds. Nice little motor OP.

You can leave the spoiler and stickers IMO - it's the rear lights and number plate surrounds that ruin it!
