Punto (Mk2/2b) Mario's Mk2 Punto.

Introduction

Ok so i have just been and stuck a deposit down on my fresh Fiat, i am finally back in a 1242 8v Fiat. its a Mk2 Punto this time so basically a family version of the best car i have ever owned, My Lovely old Cinq Sporting 1242 8v 75 conversion, a lot of you may remember it lol. Well now i have myself a really clean (needs a wash) Black Mk2 3dr, all panels are straight so a good clean car. interior isn't the best but i will get some Sporting seats for it i think.

Plans for it.
I still have my PGT wheels off my Cinq so i will throw them on for the time being and may get some lowering springs for it and defo need a Sporting interior lol. apart from that i will basically leave it alone and enjoy thrashing a little 8v around again.

Why? :confused:

No-one's given you a rollicking -- they're just trying to stop you getting stopped by the police, or getting screwed by your insurance company, if you're in an accident. (n)

Your rear lights are illegal, and, if you're parked up and hit, at night, because there was nothing for the other car's headlights to reflect from, then it would be 100% your fault. :eek:

People are just trying to help. But it's up to you whether or not you take their advice.... :rolleyes:

and to add its non stop vosa up at middlesborough by haverton hill to thje point i rarely go past anymore on my way north to civilisation

roads usually full of police motorbikes looking for cars like yours so why do it and get a fine and probably points too under construction and use
 
no my issue is the fact that you lot automatically assume!!!!
I have done it Lighter at the reflector so they still work as they should so they are NOT illegal and to add to that I just drove it down to Nottingham and I have been followed by 4 separate Police cars over the weekend and not one pulled me. 2 were as it was getting dark so they would have seen the reflectors working.

Its always so negative with you lot. no-one says well done or nice mod any-more, its just, that looks rubbish or its illegal.

This isn't my first Modified car and I do know what I am doing and have pointed this out before and yet I still get treated like a 17 year old Noob.

and I know that you guys will come back with some snide or smart arse reply so I aint even going to bother coming back as what I am thinking for my car you will all just slate and avoid the questions I ask!!!
 
whats the blue cylinder on the back left of the engine bay that the filter is attached to ? swirlpot?


I have to admit I think of Puntos as throw away cars which makes it hard for me to understand why you would want to pile money into something worth less than the average smart phone, however to each there own, the tinted lights look quite cool on a black car, i just wondered what the silver punto did wrong to land its self in prison?

Yes its a catch tank as I had it lying around when I made my intake and I didn't have a bit of pipe that would allow me to put the breather into the intake so thought I would do it this way lol, plus it might actually be needed at some point.

Not sure what the silver one has done but its gets locked up when ever it comes home. must be 1 very naughty little car lol.
 
ok so small update.

Got the rear speakers and Fiat sub wired up today, what a difference they make, forgot how nice it was having decent tuneage in my car lol

also fitted the doorcards too. left the nets on and they work surprisingly well with the winders.
