keeping the underneath sorted requires some underseal, comes in aerosol cans.

clean underneath very well, then (once its dry) just spray to your hearts content

theres little or no difference under the skin mechanically between seis and late cinqs.

the only real difference between early cinqs and early seis are the handbrake design, steering wheels and indicator stalks. late cinqs have the sei steering wheels, indicator stalks and handbrakes.

Seis have power steering, cinqs don't. (most) seis have airbags, Cinqs don't. as a result of the missing safety gear though, Cinqs are a bit lighter than seis.

The only real upgrade came later in the seis life when the 1.1 engine went from spi to mpi.

Some punto parts will fit mechanically from mk1 punto 55's and 60's engine wise, but most other parts are cinq or sei specific.
