I love this car, When I was younger I dreamed about getting an Fiat and it Happened.

Leave the snow on it looks better

All a human can ask of themselves is to fulfill their dreams, no matter how big or small they may be

Good on ya mate

if you give it a good clean, a set of wheel trims and a good days worth of t-cutting and polishing it would be a major improvement!

i think it looks rather cool in an old car kind of sense

Cutting compound the body work and it will bring the colour back a treat, probably treat it to some nice deep dish wheels and just debadge it?

Thanks for the advice,

Later I'm going too spray the bumper's black and the grill black. And there is a little rust that I'm going too get rid off.

No I'm Icelandic,

Yeah, It looks good, has an low mileage, The Interior is very clean and this is one of the 3 Fiat Uno's left in my town, Probably the only 45-S Uno.

Wow, You still have it! Hows she going?

Yeah. She's been really nice, love to drive her.. so fun!

But she has some Electric problems.. I bought a new battery but it seems to have some Battery-connection-problems Sometimes there is no electricity and i have to drive home with no lights and nothing else. :/

Oh Gosh she's so cute!!!

Possibly an ignition switch fault? There are three different types fitted to Unos so a replacement will have to come from another Mk1 Uno 45. You could try cleaning it, but it is possible for it to be worn out.

There is a main electrical connection (in-line plug/socket) near the battery - separate and clean this and make sure it's tight.

When your electrics play up, and the lights won't come on, does the fuel needle shoot clockwise and then face directly down?

That would be my pick too, ignition switch. Mine used to stop going, then start and it was all good. One day it just stopped! Unofan87, that is when I found they could do exactly what yours is doing. I would look around for a new/good used one.

Thanks for these two posts, The electric problem hasn't happened in a while now :S

But when it happens there are no lights in the dashboard, only one. Red Battery light. :/ My dad also showed me something under the hood that was loose that was causing this .. but i can't remember where it was.

Here is a new photo of my uno, taken few weeks ago
