It has been fun owning my Uno but have just bought another car for some reason which I've still to work out, any guesses - one clue it is another Fiat!, so the UT really must go.
I have a number of parts I've bought for the car, brand new OMP exhaust, Sachs/BOGE shocks and lowering springs (along with new bushes) rear strut brace, Red Dot grooved discs and Ferrodo racing pads, do you think I'm best off fitting these prior to selling, lowering would make the car look meaner and improve the handling immensly and the exhaust should make it sound a bit fruitier, although it sounds quite sweet already, but probably the other parts not worthwhile.
How much do you think I can realistically sell this for? It has MOT until Mid June next year, Tax until 31st May next year. I have recently serviced with Selenia Oil, Oil Filter, Air Filter, Fuel Filter and NGK Sparks. Setup the idle and mixture correctly, it was over rich, so it is running well. I've fixed the chips on the windscreen and the passenger side window now works after I replaced the switch. I've also put new tyres on the back. The car is not in perfect condition, it has a few marks, dints and the odd bit of surface rust the worst being on the roof.
I would really like to sell to a Fiat Enthusiast, the last bloke that almost bought the car, before pulling out because he claimed insurance was £2k, only wanted the car because it was fast, not because he liked Fiats so I suspect it would have been trashed, destroyed and scrapped in a couple of years at best.
Where is the best place to sell other than ebay? Last time it was on ebay, lots of interest and proposals to "releave me of the car" and "take it off my hands" and the usual problems that ebay motors seems to entail....timewasters.
This is not an advert although if anyone is genuinely interested please feel free to PM. I would like the car to go to someone who loves Unos and will fettle and cherish the car rather than destroying it. Where do I find someone like that?
