    Hello

    Evening guys.

    I'm Ian, and live up North in Middlesbrough to be precise. Have always had a thing for Fiats and have owned an Uno, a Sei Sporting, a Bravo HLX, and then 2 Cinqs, my current one below.

    I'm an active member of Clubcento, which is the owners club for Centos, but I now feel I just want something newer. I've sourced a 1.2 16v active sport which I'm hoping will be both friendly on tax and insurance so I can finally get a mortgage. May try and fit a few of my cento parts on it too, but it's not getting extensively moddified like my Cinq was (pictures below).

    Hopefully I'll be asking your advice soon.




    Cinq '06



    Delocked/Wipered, Abarth Rear Bumper & Spoiler



    Stripped Rear



    1242 8v Punto 60, Superchip, 40mm TB, Alloy radiator, Spesso head gasket, Punto 75 cam, GSR engineering induction kit, Magnecor leads, Longlife stainless exhaust



    Side profile, Abarth skirts, alloys painted anthracite, Punto Gt brakes, Red Dot 20 Groove discs and pads. Eibach ARB, G-Max Shocks, Spax Springs, Sparco front strut brace






    How I got the little fella

    Ian

    Well I am now the proud owner of a 53 plate 1.4 16v Punto Sporting.

    Pick it up either later on today or tomorrow and going to give it a good clean outside and then get the interior valeted.

    6 speed boxes take some getting used to

    The wheels are 14" Mangel alloys I bought from ebay brand new for about £200, I then got the painted a similar colour to anthracite to compliment the silver. Tyres are 195-45 Contis.





    Really suited the Cinq
