As you can see i have already done quite a lot of things... any suggestions what i should do next... i am thinking about lowering it and getting a private registration... thats about it, all suggestions welcome :)
No need to sound like a total muppet here, but a car just doesn't step out at the back if your going the speed limit hahaa.

I would suggest better tires if your correct about the back end stepping out.
Good job on not getting injured though. Pictures would be loved
 
will get pics up when i go to get stuff out of the car at the impound... and its the third time it has stepped out, once did it in second after i was stopped at traffic lights... dont think you can break the speed limit in second haha and if it is a write off... because i am fully comp the insurance company will own it when they pay me the £2,000 it is apparently worth... would love to strip the car... will be taking the debadged grill off and putting the old one back on though... got parcel shelf out with the speakers in and the sub, hopefully be able to get loads more things off when i go and see the car... could have gone off the bridge which would have been pretty bad, at least i am still here to say that... might have to go to a scrap yard and see if i can find a boot lid and replace it and take that... airbags and everything went off, the only damage is probably snapped front axle, broken front bumper, front drivers quarter panel and drivers door... the tower said it might be a right off though... will just have to see and hope for the best :)
 
got a free courtesy car: brand new (10 reg) came over from france last night white fiat 500 1.2 haha not too bad like... feels very strange compared to my punto though :( hopefully going to see the car tomorrow to remove stereo etc... will get pics of it there :)
 
Nice car mate.

Sorry about the crash :(


How hard was it to get the "Fiat" logo off our the back.

Was it easy putting the induction kit in or did you have to remove anything?

(im a noob, sorry) :eek:

easy to get the badges off... just heat it with hair dryer and use a credit card (i used fishing line though)... but it left a huge indent and 2 holes that i had to get filled in and painted... i think only mk2b's have that though... and the induction kit was easy to install... there is a guide on here, but pretty much what you have to do is take off the standard air filter box (2 bolts, one back left, one front right) then set the new one up :)

hope this helps
 
alryte mate,
whats happening with the car now ?
was u able to get pics of the damage ?

yeh went and recovered loads of stuff from it... debadged grill abarth door sills smoked side repeators and stereo system etc... and got pics of damage, just cba to upload them haha takes too long and have exams at the moment so don't really have time, but will get them up asap... haven't heard from the insurance company yet :( just waiting for them to get back to me on weather it is a write off or not (fingers crossed it isn't)

Cheers man, it does indeed help.

I take it the induction kit just basically allows more air through? :confused:

ty :worship:
 
thats looking good mine aint as good as urs yet only got 2 weeks ago. mines booked into spray shop for front bumper and rear arch on monday. a couple things id do with urs tho without sounding like a hater, far from it im loving urs mate.
1. try and source some seats from the active sport or sporting as they are trimmed nice i suspect urs are grey.
2. larger battery to go with ur sound system also these punto batteries are very small and its a bitch when they run down.
3. check out the difference on interior with our type and the sports/sporting as the touches of contrasting colour looks fine.
ive got a lowering kit but the doors touch on some kerbs
Great looking car
