General looking to buy a mk2 fiat uno

[retrorides]

Im new to the fiat forum. I currently drive an alfa romeo 146ti. But im looking for a 1.0 fiat uno that can give me super economy. Would be perfect as an everyday runner. Can anyone tell me what to look out for on these?

I think Rear turrets are number 1 p;ace to check, under the carpet where the shock goes through, have a good look around there.

Under doors as they like to rot out, under the front door weather strips/ door seals (require the removal of the plastic kick panel) as water can collect there, If it is a sunroof model then be very wary as these are hot spots for tin worm.

Can't think of any more at the mo i'm shattered.

Hope this helps

Yes, as mentioned by Dan, check those rustspots. Furthermore, the headgasket is the weak spot of FIRE engines, so make sure it had all its services, or consider replacing it immediately.
