Thats the one I baught my girlfriend....it wasn't quite "as advertised" bodywork is fair, "dent in door" included "dent in sill"
Electrics in doors don't work and are burned, It took me a day to extract the remains of a broken imobiliser and get the electrics to behave.

Needed a new alternator, battery and i've just baught a new exhaust. (holed and no gasket on downpipe)

I got a pair of manual front doors in the right colour from a scrap tipo to bolt on.

Fuel guage sender faulty. pass wing mirror isn't right for car and bodged on.

Bit of a cold running/starting issue probably crap in the carb.

But the miles seems genuine and once the works finished i figure it'll be a quite good car.

Otherwise a after a good scrub she looks kinda "presentable"

ANyhow despite all this it is a significant on her old cinquecento which has a cylinder head wear issue (valves very clicky and emissions failure on MOT) which we will be bunging on Ebay very shortly..
