Were to start off
At the start of the cars life it was a 899cc then when my brother and his mate got hold of it it started going thought a few changes
first change 1242 cc engine out of a punto then some more cosmetic mods started comeing along like 60mm lowring kit on gmax spings and dampers , matt had some 15" multipoke alloys on , and he fitted reclining bucket seats in to it , Uno turbo rear disk conversion
Matt fitted cinquecento Abrath Rear spoiler
Cinq sporting rear liight ( no pictured)
This is what it looked like ( bucket seats not in pics)


back in 12/10/07 Matthew gave me this car , as he could not affored to run the turbo and this one on the road at the same time + it gave me a car to learn in so the 15" alloys came off and l plates stuck in

got the test past and then the modifications started comeing a bit faster , our friend was scrapping a sei abarth so we took that off him and thats where i got my sei abarth seats from
and i bought some wid deflectoers
the wheels needed a bit of a refurb so Matt gave it a go at refurbing them
then me and matt bought a set of gauges off ebay to keep a eye on the oil temp and oil pressure
now the Center console is not wrapped in tape like it is in the pics

.
then we put the abrath seats in the frount,
I bought a Bmc Cda off Brooky ( ff and cc) and it came with some sillicone hose and a Shiny bob
We also made a carbon map sensor cover and bracket and my dad made a pully cover
i Bought some larger disks and calipers im sure the calipers came off the merea 100
had a dyno run on the car on the 30-9-09 and the car produced are 83.45 hp and 94.55ft-lb of torque
While driving round my exsaust started to sound REALY loud

So with matts turbo being off the road and that haveing a perfect janspeed on so start of the morn it looked like this ...
end of the day , RIGHT before going to a car show that night it looked like this .
Fitted Cinq sporting Head Lights
then i had a offer of a window tiner to tint my windows for £60 so i thoought id buy the tint and give it a go our selfs , in top gear style it was "how hard can it be" ?
in the end result i was happy with them , i know i have a few air bubbles , but hey it was our first go at tinting
christmass day i ran down the stairs like evry little kid dose and there was a nice big box waiting there
biggrin.gif
with a little pice of paper coveing up a web site all i could see was (a website link) ripped that off and it was strutbracer. opedn the box and there was a strut brace waiting to to go
