[GrayB]

Sorry if there is parts you dont understand bare with me its all bein copied of a other car club forum.


With Petrol now costing a morgage and me living in wigan and working in widnes its costing me loads just to go to work so i have bought a seicento!

Ill just upload pics from how i got it to how it is now!




Then Bought Buckets



Then dad plugs his company


Then painted sills as they look bad



Took all wheels off for cleaning and to be painted



^^^^Didnt relise they where speedlines

Gave all The brackets for the buckets a good Polish



Got the navigators foot rest in


Fitted custom grills for the front bumper made by Magnum Motorsport and there also making a carbon fibre Bonnet pod to house 4 Cibie lights


Bonnet pins fitted


Car was then dropped closer to the floor by 40mm


Sills were stratched so stickered them up


And all the back of the car Striped and harnesses bolted in


Weight saved

Looks like a bit of fun!, what are they like to drive? I know nothing about these cars at all, engines etc.


So is this your daily driver or a track slaag?

[GrayB]

Yea its my daily drive, i will be getting it on monday (when insurence starts)

its a 1.1 with custom Powertune Motorsport Re-map and full de-cat system coming in the week and a custom air filter to sit behind the holes in the carbon bumper vents

Me and my girlfreind have an 07 vauxhall astra sri so thats the long distance weekend car.

Will get more pics up soon!

[Sim89]

Cool stuff, do you plan to give it a track run?

I see your in Widnes, not far from me at all, im just outside St.Helens

[GrayB]

Thats pretty close then so you what side im currently in upholland.

The intention was to start road rallying but we'll see in time.

[Sim89]

Yeah I live in Rainford, just down the road!

[GrayB]

Not far atall then well if you see the car beep and wave

An old girlfriend of mine had a cinquecento 0.9, up there with the most fun i've ever had behind a wheel, the little power and nimble handling made for some great fun.

I love little fiats, they give you smiles out of all proportion to their size and performance

[flattotheboards]

Is it having a cage then to finish the look? cool little car.

[The Riddler]

I owned an abarth for a number of months as my first car, Such a hoot to drive.

Considering getting one as a bit of a toy, This thread has got me thinking!

[jb007]

i 2nd all that, ace runabout cars, loads of fun without speeding! Loads of fun. just bought mine for manchester city centre, drive round it all day long so perfect car.

Loving those bucket seats you've put in. Ive stripped the rear too, but im going to lay board down and carpet it so ive got an estate, then my dog can come with me :-)

[Car Mad Craig]

hiya mate
mint fiat but can we have some more pics of the whole car to see the work youve done on the inside and out ??
thanks

[GrayB]

Sorry about the late reply im going to get some pics while im off over christmas

plans have changed, its not going to be used as a road rally car

but will be having the engine out (55hp)

and will be replaced by the punto 75hp engine as its a straight fit

then going to spend some time on the engine i.e get the head skimmed and bigger pistons ect


then hopefully with the new engine in could be hoping for around 85hp in a car that weighs nothing and with 85hp shouldn't lose the handling which makes the car so much fun in the 1st place

i used to have a cinqucento sporting. lowered, janspeed exhaust and K&N air filter. i loved it

First car I ever owned was a black Seicento Sporting that my then-girlfriend christened 'Eggy' 'cos of the smell of sulphur that followed it everywhere...

Saw an 'indicated' 115mph once - downhill, naturally, on a private road nr. Milton Keynes. I lovedthe fact that every journey was a flat-out thrash - and still 38mpg!

Traded it in for a Ford Mondeo ST24 - what a mistake!
