same colour as my old one. the 1.1 sporting turbos nicely with the turbo off of a 1.7diesel astra van. all you need to do is add the turbo fit a second injector over the throttle port and put it on after market management. easily good for 100bhp of pocket rocket cheep fun.

or stick a busa turbo in it if you want to get your mates screaming like little girls.

another must modification to these little darlings is eibach springs and dampers. it makes them handle like they are on rails.

Not unless you keep it for 12 months and the scheme is still running then.

Get along to a grass track meet, they'll show you what to do with it.

Bike engine in the back

I love cinqs, I have two. Not got an Imola Blue one... yet.

One of the best little cars you can get for the money. Sportings are so fun to drive and will keep 'most' german saloons behind them, maybe only about 2 inches off your back bumper, but most drivers hate to be sat behind one.

Please keep us informed on progress.

"Seicento"
That's the layout that I was thinking of to keep the whole thing looking reasonably standard.
Would be great to see the other pics and what you used for the diff

If you go for a rwd conversion, don't you need IVA?

If you stick a bec in it and remain as a fwd, no iva?
