Hi Pal,

That would be about right then......give or take a few miles,when i did my rebuild at 80k mine was about to go and by the looks of it the gasket was original?

Cheers Scuderia

my seicento lasted to 85k and 165k before the gaskets went so its around then..... tbh the little imola has been showing whos boss recently .

he went for a race... i mean drive up some cumbrian passes against a 20vt coupe, focus st and a clio 182 all on the day it dies so its likely it went out the way fiat intended, with the valves bouncing!!!!!!..


no doubt he will have it running by today

Sorry to hear about HG, was this jamies old cinq?

It looks cool. I'm on the hunt for another cento, couldn't make my mind up on a cinq or a sei this time but I think a cinq is winning so far after seeing Don's yesterday.

Cheers
Donna
