Hello everyone :wave: I am a complete newbie to seicento's and forums please go easy on me my car lingo is a bit rusty
From the get go I wanted a Fiat Seicento 1.1 Sporting they were small, nippy and relatively low insurance, tax and mot and would get me from A to B. But i also wanted a project, a car i could make my own as this is 'technically' my first car (was originally insured on someone else's car for 3 years because i'm cool like that lol ).
Riffled though all the site that sold cars and after 4 failed 'sorry its sold' attempts i found the awesome seicento 1.1 sporting 1 hour ish away from me with only 23.000 miles on the clock . Rushed down there the next day and the dealer ship had parked it right next to a industrial bin ... Although my other half thought it was quite amusing i told the guy nicely to move the car . Test drove it, loved it and brought it the same day. :woot:
So without further ado say hello to my little seicento
My list so far of what i need and want to do:
I am 100% sure this list will get bigger the more I inspect the car lol.
If there is anything you think I might need to get or do to my little seicento please feel free to comment and or recommend and thank you for viewing my first post thread thingy

My list so far of what i need and want to do:
- Under seal the under belly of my car as they have started to spread salt again and its not even given snow :shakehead: *sigh*
- Replace front window wipers, I hope it doesn't rain too much although it is England
- New fog lights as they have oxidized
- buy some new spark plugs (when i quickly press the acceleration peddle on and off i get a judder not smooth revs i think its something to do with the spark plugs at least or it might just be that i'm stupid and it does that anyway)
- Get some injector cleaner 'redex' if anyone knows of anything better please don't hesitate to recommend it to me
- Need to buy some marine grease preferably one with a calcium based thickener as it acts as an anti-corrosive too
- Find a better fix to the heater (I think) pipe rubbing.
- Find out what the disconnected pipes are in my engine bay (will post pics up of these soon I really have no idea what they are and i cant look in a hains manual they don't do one)
I am 100% sure this list will get bigger the more I inspect the car lol.
