no plans to do anything apart from fix up my other wheels and spray gunmetal gray and paint calipers and drums
no need to tint it as my other windows are a straight fit and are in perfect nick, just need to get the back window tinted and sunstrip and leave it at that (y)

do subtle changes like polish the headlight covers and destrip it and maybe paint alloys gunmetal grey :)
if it wer mine and wanted to keep things cheap id sell those alloys and buy a set of mk1 abarth alloys in gunmetal grey :D

i have perfect condition headlights to go onto it from the old punto (y)
yep will prob sell the alloys (y)
abarth alloys would look the bizz...hard got over here though (n)
 
I saw the pics of what state your other Punto ended up in. First thing, before you start spraying the other alloys make sure they're all straight and not buckled as you don't want to find out they're bent as you got to put them on the car.
 
Mate you dont wait around. :D

2 doors for less whores, BUT 4 seats for 4 whores. So its all good.

One thing id say is, dont get a big sunvisor again, the legal size is like 1inch. Any sunstrip at all wont go down well with the n.c.t man. :(

Anyway its a lovely car. (y)

think from now on im gonna have to be a more cautious driven even though it wasnt speed that caused that caused it but still, lesson learned

do punto's have the seatbelt beep warning thing? id like to have it turned off if they do
 
Mate your blessed to be alive after that crash.

The big lad upstairs was looking after you.

I crash my mothers car last week. It was pure stupidity that casused it.
Going to fast and I hit a wet patch on the road and it slid sideways, then the front bumper got cought in a stone on the wall, that stop me from sliding sideways into a neighbour who was sitting in his shagon wagon.

But I learned a very valuable lesson.

To slow down.

Now mate im not saying that you was speeding or anything like that so dont get me wrong, you were just unlucky.

Nice little buy, and handy you can transplant all the pits off your old one.

as its black you'll need to pile on the polish to keep it looking nice, as you'll find out even the slightest little bit of dust shows up and in the sun can look awful.
but still a much better colour in my view than the blue one.

i learned the hard way not to put loads of money into my first car (n)

this is why i spend a lot of time trying to put people of spending a fortune on their cars because you can spend thousands and its still only going to be a €850 car, better to enjoy it learn then move onto something more powerful :devil:
