Re: '1PuntoCarl's updated 5 door progress thread.'

Alfa seats, they should fit onto mk1 subframes? (the fronts)

Also do they have the seat heaters in them?


Last but no means least, how much?

I'll miss your 5 door punto...

thanks for that, me too! lol

na not going to swap seats over, as the fronts dont lean foward because they're specifically for 5 doors. im going to try and get alfa 147 black leather (3 door version)

im not sure if they'll fit onto the mk1 subframes, but you could have my mk2 subframes?? yes they have heaters in them, and im looking for as much as possible lol, 150-200 i think is a good price.

Carl.

I'm so glad the new owner is on here as I spotted it being driven on Beach Road in Hemsby about 2 weeks ago. Nothing wrong in that you may think but I was shocked to see it considering a couple of months ago it was supposed to have been scrapped!




The wife was driving it and tried to avoid another car but went into a bollard. John Grose took it away to price up a new wing, bonnet, bumper, spray job and headlight. I guess the quote was too much so it became an insurance write-off. I filled out the V5 to say it'll be scrapped and sent all the other paperwork to the insurance company.

Out of interest Lecook, who sold you the car and did they tell you it had been in an accident?

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

You'll be seeing the convertable Panda's soon Phil

it's still going about in bits on sisters Active

 

[Phil_]

That's 2 cars the wife has written off. Although the Panda wasn't her fault.

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

Although the Panda wasn't her fault.

I was about to say, hardly her fault though - you've a 'professional' driver to thank for that

I'm dying to know the story behind that Punto being sold. As far as I was concerned it was written off and would be in a million pieces at Hainford Hall or similar.

I'm also wondering whether it's down on the V5 as a Cat C.

 

[Most Easterly Pandas]

If its a CAT C that required a VIC then it'll appear on the new V5C (or should anyway).

you could have repaired that in a morning with scrappie parts (same colour)
would have been a shame to munch it

 

[Phil_]

That's what they've done. The insurance quote would've been for brand new parts and a top dollar spray job but anyone who bought that car could easily have sorted it with second hand bits and a friendly sprayer who'll only ask for a few quid cash in hand.

i buy them all day
yours looks like a 16 valve though?
bottoms fallen out for them
everyone wants cheap dolla 1.2 sporting eighta valve
im happy to supply
shame

Doesn't bother me, I reckon private it was worth £1300 as there was only one key. We got more for it as a write-off.
