some would argue you'd have to go mk1 uno for the true fiat turbo experience....

Whys that then Jai??? I think mark 1s and 2s are pretty evenly matched... Mark 1 blocks are better to begin with but the mark 2 is still a decent engine and people only crack their blocks when they run stupid amounts of boost without thinking really :D
I know someone who stuck a mark 1 uno Turbo lump into a punto but like Dunc says they got too much weight on them.

LOL ok mate, well i kinda get what you mean, the mark 1 uno turbo started it all off really and the mark 2 was never loved as much as the original by the UK when it was released either, hence why older boy racers (like urself hehe) have a soft spot for the mark 1s cos they used to either own one in their teens or wanted one but never could!!!!!! And as my friend Biz says once you own one and sell it you always wana come back and buy another..
