Hi all

My flatmate was after some cheap transport and I found this little beast which we got for £220 with an MOT till Oct. It had been off the road in a back yard for a few months but a good clean up and it looks pretty good.

I got to drive it back home and it brought back so many memories of my uno, I am jealous, I had forgotton what great cars they are.

This is a 92 model with no rust, even on the door bottoms, with 86K on the clock. It's the basic 4 speed carb FIRE. It was a bit unhappy when we first started it, but a few good runs and it seems to have a new lease of life. Engine has an occasional missfire at idle but pulls cleanly when you put your foor down. I checked out the vacuum advance module and this is completely shot, so hopefully a new one will sort out the rough running.

Touch wood this should turn out to be a good little motor for the money.

Phil

Just fitted the new vacuum advance and changed the oil. The engine now runs smoothly at idle, sounds like a new car.

Hope it makes it to Manchester this weekend, I have confidence!
