New To Fiat...

[Shane0uk]

hey all. So my story goes like this...

been looking for a first cheapish car now for months and have given up on Golfs, 306's, and Rover 200's... So i've gone for a Fiat Punto.

They're cheap, they dont look too bad, the only thing i'm pissed about is theres no power stearing. I've got about £850 to spend, not including insurance, and i want to stick a body kit on it to make it look nicer (plz dnt give me the lecture if you're not into kitted cars)

This is what i'm looking at...

Fiat...

Or something like that... (i know the guy whos selling this Fiat btw)

Body kit...

Questions...

1)roughly how much would it cost to fit/spray the kit?
2)is the fiat really hard to drive with out the PAS?
3)what do you think of my plan?

Much appreciated

Hi and welcome to the FF, ive got to be honest and say im not keen on that Kit your looking at.............and whatever you do make sure you add wheels and lowering to your list of to do if your going to kit it otherwise it'll just look plain weird

Good luck with your plans, and im sure any questions you have can be answered
