Uno Uno mk2 i.e : 1.4 Turbo

[adamcot]

Nice looking car! Would love one of these, but not got the time or money at the moment The only thing I think Id change is that intercooler, its too "in your face" and makes it look more Jap. Rest of it looks nice though

Thanks dude, Yeah the intercooler is quite in your face tbh but i do kinda like it and when its plumbed in will help the bhp out a tad too

Was this Beau's?

 

[lead_foot90]

Umm I dont know who Beau is , I got it from a lad in Bristol He now has my rx7 FC with welded diff

 

[beau]

not mine.

it looks tidy

the mk2s didnt come with any graphics as such.... just the side skirts had turbo logo and a red stripe down them.

 

[lead_foot90]

Ah i see , May have to look into that I did see a uno mk2 turbo graphic on good old ebay said for the sill .

this car used to belong to my mum, she sold it to a young lad (can't remember where he was from).

the car is a little cracker and drives quite nice, wheels spins a bit though.

quick little car and kept up-ish with my fiat coupe.

i nearly bought it off her, great little car and my mum only sold it to get a punto gt which proved to be a pile of ****e.

Ahh wicked , is awesomely clean for age and yeah imagine it does keep up with bigger engines , Currently im needing to sort the turbo out on it as turbo seals have gone .

Had it on the road for a day then they went , So off the road this week trying to sort it all out before next weekend .

think i remember it needing valve stem seals and not turbo seals but it only just started to do that when she sold it, bet the young lad thrashed the nuts off it.

it had some welding done in the boot by the guy she bought it off but was done properly and not just patched up.

it is one of the best i've seen in a long time. i would of bought it off my mum but i had no where to put it at the time.
it got quite a bit of attention when she had it with people commenting on how good the condition it was in.

she only sold it because of the lack of power steering (which i asked for advice on here about fitting seicento electric power steering to it quite a few months back) and she wanted a punto gt

you've got a good car there as it's had loads of money spent on it.

I think it must be valve seals that need doing then as visually turbo looks spot on . Tbh i dont think the lad was any younger than me (im just 20) , he seemed bit of a weird one though lol . He drove like a complete fanny if im to be completely honest in both the uno and the rx7 i gave him for it .

Am gunna get it sorted begining of next week as i've done what im happy doing just gotta remove head this week for mate to sort next week .

It is extremely good condition How would i fit power steering , im not fussed by lack of it but could be another mod to add to it

 

[doody]

i never found out how to fit power steering as mum changed her mind by the time i got round to do anything to it and sold it.

 

[lead_foot90]

Fair enough dude.

Are those MG ZR alloys?

 

[blu73]

looking at them, i'd say they are some aftermarket ones.

I thought the exact same thing but UNOs are 4x98 , rovers are 4x100 .

They do look like the rover hairpin alloys

looking at them, i'd say they are some aftermarket ones.

They have TSW centrecaps so who knows LOL . I think they suit it pretty well though

 

[blu73]

I think they suit it pretty well though

Agreed

 

[lead_foot90]

As some of you know, I was saying about how i wanted my FMIC and front piping satin black to blend it in abit with the front bumper . Well I have done it and now its all looking better I think.

Vmod of how i hoped it would look !

And how it turned out with a quick rub down and a little spray with a can of Satin Black .

Now just to replace the valve stem seals then put it all back together and then it will be out on the road

 

[blu73]

Looks good

 

[doody]

to answer a question a few posts back i think they are tsw wheels 'cus we found a tsw center cap key with one or two other bits for the uno when sorting out mums place.

when my mum had it there was no front mount intercooler cut into the bumper only the standard one.

i may of said before but this car you have mate is one of the best i've seen in ages and i recon she could of got more than the £1100 she sold it for...
