Hi Guys, thinking of selling up as i want summit quicker. Been lookin at 1.6i vtr saxos but i just wanna know how much id rake in for ma uno. Any suggestions greatly welcomed.
1108 j reg 1992. 51000miles, 12month mot, getting 1 yr tax next month, i'd throw in sony 10 disc cd changer and 2 spl6x9's

why down gradeing? keep the uno saxos are for chavs

The cars never broke down in the yr ive had it, just need a change. i drove ma friends saxo and really liked it, id still buy an uno again to try and doo up once i had cash behind me, just can only afford 1 at a time at the mo, and i want a saxo.

If you want reasonable car in this range, keep your Uno or, if you are really finding yourself unbearably bored by it, get Punto.
If you are used to self-servicing your straigtforward Uno, you will find the Cit captious. This is, unfortunately, true with the other French cars as well (no matter if PGT or Renault). Chaotic design, sloppy workmanship...
Unless you have a Cit with hydraulic suspension, I cannot see any real advantage over the Torino bunch.

want something faster?

drop a punto 60 engine in. it SHOULD fit perfect as the block used in the 1.1 unos is the same as the cento block except the cento runs off ignition coils rather than the single and a distributor but all should be well. may need a few other little bits swapping but should be fine really (mainly just little sensors like the oil pressure etc.

will give you that extra bit of power and make it more fun to drive

Saxos are poor. They took off because Citroen were doing free insurance deals to get the boy racers in and lots of aftermarket parts were produced for them as well. The Uno is a better car.

I agree as my g/f had a saxo from new, she had loads of problems and the performance was crap compared to my uno.
As for value I would say about £400 if your lucky

You wont find another car with the charm an Uno has.

Id say £300-400 sadly.

Dont get a Saxo, get a Punto instead.

pitty its got a sunroof or id have given u £50 for the shell lol

Dunc

LMFAO Dunc u cheeky sod hahahaha u really are desperate for a shell aint ya.
Buy a saxo mate so i can show you what an 11 year old uno turbo can do to your "FAST" car lol My mate has a saxo VTS and i gotta admit it is quite nice looking and pretty quick too but both me and my mate in his renault 5 absolutely obliterated it lol.
I dont actually know much about citroens but i dont really like them to be honest, but i'd say most of us on here are biased towards fiats anyway so if you really want a saxo that bad then who are we to stop you?

Oh by the way thats a very nice looking uno you got there. i think you could get about £400 or maybe more for that if you be patient.

Giving up a Fiat Uno for a Citroen Paxo? :nutter: (!!!!!)

Traitor! Sleeping with the enemy!

Don't forget the other problem with a Saxo. Everyone else on the road will think you're a Chav and a :tosser:

Well, at the end of the day you are on a Fiat Forum, so you can't expect much support for giving up a Fiat for a Citroen

Citroen don't know how to screw a car together properly. I had one, and it put me off Citroens for life. Also had to work on friends Pugs and Renaults - put me off French cars for life!

If you must get rid of your Uno get another Fiat. You know it makes sense

Best quote so far... (if that dont put you off god help ya soul) lol

lol, reading all this has made me appriciate my uno so much more, i wanted to do more to it a while ago but as every1 was saying to me, its an old car. i want it to be a bit more faster, also, when ever i start the car up, it die's really quiclkly, i need 2 keep revin for a few minutes to get the engine to tick over, any1 know why this could be? or any ways to fix?

Get urself an uno turbo- you know it makes sense! Much cheaper than a vtr saxo, and faster too!!!
