Cinquecento my £75 cinquecento sporting

Introduction

well my punto got a prohibition order and needs a new mot which i cant afford atm.

so picked up this cinquecento sporting :cool: 3 months tax & 5 months mot, 59,000 miles and fsh and history,

only problem is leaking water pump & a rear wheel bearing (but i found a cinq in a scrap yard today with a brand new rear bearing, got it for £10 (y)

iv just swapped the alloys over from the punto, will give it a polish & new water pump and that should do it... until next week anyway.

yeah as dave said i get these cheap cars from the classifieds on here (y)

il get some more pics of it at the weekend all polished up, needs new bumpers cos they are lacquered so they are PINK!

but i cant really complain for the price ;)

on a plus side iv been using it all week and done over 100 miles in it now and its running sweet :D
 
That's a steal for £75! I didn't know you could even get a rolling let alone running car for £75!

Its difficult now days cos of price of metal. You will find more on forums like this because people respect their cars enough not to gain a few quid by scrapping them.
We used to get group cars for under a ton all the time. The best was a Daimler Sovereign for £100. Absolutely everything worked on it, heated leather seats, tinted windows. We used to love bowling about in that.

its a great car, but it could deffinatly do with a slightly bigger engine, the 1.2 16v would be ideal.
One of the many options yeah.. i certainly agree the sporting should not have had the 1108 8v in the first place..

and handling is rather crap!
