Hi guys,
Simply because this is the 'Turbo Collective' forum, i thought i'd throw this on here to see if anyone is interested.
I have for sale a Cinquecento Turbo. The engine has recently been rebuilt utilising the vanaaken turbo kit which was available a few years back. Engine has low compression pistons pulled directly from a punto 85 engine, also a p85 crank which has been all been looked at by auto integrale. my dad and i have assembled it and it is now a runner awaiting an MOT & tax (hopefully to take place this weekend)
I'm after £2000 for this rare little beast, but i am open to offers. Here is a strange video featuring me talking about it (before the new rebuild) haha. if ur interested PM me. its gotta go soon!
Please note, the car needs running in (at least 1500miles) and setting up so for that reason its currently on a standard fiat gasket and running low boost (about 0.4 bar) However with the pistons it has and with the addition of a spesso gasket it'll be good for about 0.8 - 1.0 bar... and trust me thats fooken quick in a box like that! enjoy vid
Ha, cool vid alex mate, why did you make it ??? Looks like a proper TV add or something... What are you after next now you are selling your UT and your Cinq ??? Get a coop 20v turbo mate, you wont regret it...
P.S Nice house at the end mate, your folks must be minted...

Well my mate did film & video at uni and loved the cinq so he wanted to do a video. I've got the whole length thing on DVD lol. had bullet cams everywhere haha.
I have to say i really don't want to sell the UT and it won't be the last one i own but i need reliability at the moment so am gonna go for a Civic type-R. Plus i use it everyday, and it shouldn't really be that way. I need a break from fiats as they are all i have ever had.
