Reply With QuoteI miss my uno... none of this turbo lark though, full on 1.0ieit did rust like mad though
If i had the cash, i'd love an uno T just for a bit of fun!
God knows how so many of you have had so many different cars. I only had 7 cars in 14 years !!.
I had an Uno turbo and loved it, but as mentioned by someone else they are very prone to rust which is why they are now very rare. Also, they dont do very well in a crash which is another reason why they are becoming rare (and the reason why i dont own one anymore as mine was written off)
Ive never had a Coupe but ive know people that have and theyve both had lots of trouble with the 20V turbo engines. To be honest id prefer the coupe as its newer and looks better, but im sticking with the Supra for now until i see a very good punto as a second car.

i love the mk1 uno turbo's, ive had 5, 1 of which was my first car, they are just so much fun but due to rust problems every time i moved on to the gt but if i could get a rust free mk1 uno turbo id have one tomorrow.

Ive pulled the kit off which ill be putting on the grey one and have also stuck the half leather recaros in. Just in the process of selling off parts now to make my money back then will stick whats left of it back on ebay probably. Ill take a photo in daylight tomorrow of wots left lol. Pretty much a bare shell with an engine, box, turbo n all the running gear. If i wasnt in need of the cash id stick it in the first 1.1 uno or punto i saw come along. Anyone here feel up to the challenge? Cheap conversion gear here? Been done in 55 shells plenty of times? Ill stick it in parts for sale tomorrow wen i get the photos
Didnt that car come with a spare engine too lol?
Yeah lol,
Theres a head, cam etc too. Heads practically brand new too
With all new bearings and ancillaries
Heres the back quarter after removing the kit
Anyone tell the car in the top right corner of the 1st photo? U should be shot if u cant
