Hello all!
Back with a 3rd Fiat, a mk1 98 Punto 60 . Anyway, I have little hands on experience with cars and near enough no tools. The old girl needs a few things to tidy her up and ideally I would like to service her my self in the very near future as well as perhaps the more simple repairs/maintenance as and when necessary (brakes, for instance). I do mechanical engineering at uni so know the basics of the car in theory, but have never done more than change an air filter! Would this be silly to assume that armed with a haynes manual and the world wide web that I can do this? If I can, what sort of basic essential tools should I look at investing in, as I do plan on doing as much as I can do when needed on my drive!
Cheers folks,
Sam
P.s. Sorry if in wrong section!
