Bushboy's Uno Turbo Restoration Thread UPDATED 10/03/06

Youll regret it mate especially once you see it restored and running brilliantly

Im still waiting to get another mk2 UT after nearly 2 years of not driving one!

Alot of people have "moved on" but always want them back
it a trend ive noticed over the last year on Turbo Collective
 
it does run brilliantly :D

nah ill miss the sheer power of it but ill be glad to be back in a cinq :D

i might buy one thats had all the restoration work done on it already in a few years when I can afford 2 cars.. then just keep it garaged and let it loose on weekends :) they arent a sensible comuting car really.
 
All they are, are low compression 1.4 when the turbo isnt spinning, so no stress on the engine in theory so commuting was never a problem for me in my mk2

Only time mine failed me:

After a 14hr nite-shift (Master clutch failure, know fault due to age)
Clutch linings got extreamly hot due to some bad-ass GTI bashing!!
Ao i had no gear selection for 10 mins! lol

That it in 1 year of running mate
No problem at all
As long as you treat them right then they run and run and run.........

But if you cant afford it then i know exactly what you mean
But be warned, fully restored wil be pricey in a few years i think!
