Hi guys, just checking back in, you might remember my yellow Cinq Abarth with the Challenge Stradale stripe I had for a decade before it gave up the ghost. I did miss the driving experience so kept an eye out and picked up a worthy successor on Sunday. It’s a 2001 Seicento Schumacher (MPI, ABS, power steering model) with 66k on the clock and apart from some minor cosmetic bits it’s a sound car. Recent service included the head gasket, sump, belts, pulleys, spark plugs, leads, filters, alternator and Bosh S4 battery so not much to do in that department thanks to the previous owner.

I would like to put my own spin on it and do some upgrades, so if anybody has any of the following bits for cheap please let me know: lowering springs/shocks, mint clear front and side indicator lenses, mint fog lights, red seatbelts (from a cinq), s/s exhaust system, induction kit, roof aerial with base, rear parcel shelf with oem speakers, Schumacher side skirt badge.


It’s number 0944 but not sure out of how many made?

Nice [emoji1360] I'll have a look to s e if I have anything that you are looking for.
 
The front fog light replacements are not too costly on Ebay. I don't think any original ones will be in good shape as they are alloy and steel. The ones on my Sei looked like they had been recovered from the Titanic!

Where there Oem parcel shelf speakers?
 
Same here, the fogs are so badly corroded I'm afraid to even switch them on!

I had an 02 reg Sporting before that had oem rear speakers in the parcel shelf and a buddy of mine has an 03 reg Sound version that also has them in, so there should be some around. They look quite tidy so definitely a better option than butchering the standard parcel shelf :D
