True, but at least it's carefully fitted to the available space... looks like a nice job to me though I don't personally like big speakers in the back... I'm a fan of black speaker-box carpet, but the vinyl would be easier to keep clean!

no its black leatherette streteched over an MDF stealthshelf I made myself. Its not cheapo tacky vinyl 
looked the ******** tbh. I got the leatherette stuff from ebay.. bought 5 meters of the stuff and still got about 3 of it left after doing the whole car cost around £12 a metre.. really good quality stuff.
heres one of the door cards.

bobe1, nice... welcome to the forum!
Your Uno looks a minter. Did you do those mods yourself or buy it as-is? And most importantly, do you like driving it?
Bushboy - pretty good work, considering you only kept the car for a few weeks wasn't it? Was there something wrong with the door cards - I thought the Mk2 had a different design to the Mk1 and I thought it was a lot better... Also one other question; was that yellow an original FIAT colour (I'm guessing not?) and which yellow did you use?
Thanks,
-Alex

Welcome and nice car Bobe1!
He bought it like that, kept it for 5 minutes and sold it again. Pretty sure Fiat never sold the Uno in Yellow, I kinda like it. If Bushboys insurance company is anything like mine they must love him, £20 admin cost to modify the policy, kerching!

To be honest I reckon the wheels are a bit overkill. I was thinking about going for 16" compomotive wheels when my Hormann kit's sorted out but even then I'd be concerned about the loss of agility at low speed.
How's she handle? =)
...and where in the country are ya?

I'll answer that! Those are mk1 door cards for sure. Quite how they ended up on a mk2 only Bushboy can answer

Looked good Chris
What did you use to stick it down with? I'm looking at buying some leatherette on Ebay to re-cover my roof lining, but wondered what adhesive to use that will stick it down. And how much does the adhesive cost?
Oh, and Bobe1. Nice looking mk1! :slayer:
I used some spray stuff i found in B&q.. seemed to do the job well enough
as for the door cards, well im pretty sure the doors were replaced for MK1 doors (origina ones were probably rusty) at the time it was resprayed.
Its a renault yellow colour, almost identical to broom yellow.
As for selling it.. cost me too much on the insurance. and no, luckily they dont charge me for changing cars
