thought i'd stick a couple of pic's up of a couple of reasons why i haven't been on here much lately...









i do want to come back to the coupe fold again but would be in addition to these little uno's.

i'd love my old plus back though.

Get's a thumbs up from me - very cool.

I had a grey one too. Lovely.

Very nice pair there! I had 3 mk Uno Turbo's and would love another now. Your pics remind me of a mk2 turbo I found utterly mint on an M plate with 43k on the clock back in met red in 2005 for a friend of mine who wanted it as a weekend toy...it spent a few months in his garage not being used then his missus 'told' him to sell it. A chap bought it then ruined it with loads of chavvy mods then trashed it completely a few months later. Heart-breaking

Good to see a couple of mk2's alive and well though

I would love one as a daily driver, practical and fun. My mate has one he does track days in, that thing is quick!

wow...

i love the Uno turbo's..

i had a mk1 for a short period of time then got a nice grey Mk2 that was just lovely to drive...

then sold it

still to this day i regret it

Like this one Marco?

oh dear... i need 2k asap.. why did my engien have to go

thanks everyone.
think i've said several times on here how much i like uno turbo's.

anyway i've only had the white one for a few weeks, the grey one a while longer.
the mrs really hates these cars and is trying to make me sell the grey one so it's pleasing to see other people like my old uno's.

the grey one was restored a few years ago but there are still one or two things i need to do to it but the interior is like new.

the white one was i think resprayed by the last owner about 7 or 8 years ago but they have had it for 11 years.
the guy did it up for his mrs and is in really amazing condition.
i do have a couple of rust bubbles to do to it at some point soon. i think the guy only welded one patch on the car and that was it, if i've remembered correctly.

so both really good and super fun, miss not having power steering though but wouldn't change these car's from what they are now well except the brakes (forgot how poor uno turbo brakes are).
best bit these are reasonable on fuel and cheap to insure on classic car insurance and so rare to find.

i will be taking these to the retro show in june with some of the guys and theirs from turbocollective web site so i'm planning on getting plenty of pic's incase i have to sell the grey one.

me too, colour is beautiful

Guys, watch this space for exciting Uno Turbo news!

ooooh sounds interesting, you buying that one off ebay?

i'm going to to be selling my grey now 'cus the mrs has told me to either sell one of my uno's or move out.

did think about moving out though.

Well, I've bought a mk1 Uno Turbo - in bits but the shell is 100% restored & mint plus it came with a HEAP of new OE parts. Will be starting a 'projects' thread in due course but for now some initial piccies:

awesome mate can't wait to see this on the road, i wanted this myself but wasn't aloud any more uno's lol

Looks like Jas is going to be having some fun!

Can I help you Jas??

That looks like fun!!!!

It will indeed be 'fun' at times I'm sure!! All help gratefully received

Thinking about it as I'll be doing a 'project' thread over on the Turbo Collective forum I won't duplicate it on this forum, but will post a link if anyone's interested.

A distant friend of mine has a completely restored red mk1 Uno Turbo, E reg, resprayed and rebuilt, MIGHT be a Brooklands this Sturday, I think when he bought it a couple of years ago it was one old guy who owned from new and I think it had something silly like 8-9K on the clock!!

Cool, I should be at Brooklands on Saturday (not in a Fiat though!) so will have a good look if it's there :-)

A few years back I was visiting St Albans regularly on business and a couple of times I saw an old chap driving a red E reg mk1 Turbo - it looked very tidy, he was at least 75 and could barely see over the steering wheel so I often thought just how tidy it was up close & what the mileage might be...could be the one your friend bought?!

You never know! He did buy it off an oldish guy. Ill have to try and find out where he bought it from, but how many Red, E reg mint mk1 Uno Turbos are out there driven by an old chap??

Indeed, can't have been many! Although I intend to keep mine indefinitely so give it a few years and there'll be one driven by me at least

Nice!

cool i'll have someone near me with one, will have to have a mini group meet and take some cool photo's.

sold my grey one this morning so a bit gutted but at least i still have my white one.

The guy who owns the Red Uno Turbo I was talking about above was there today, I just said a quick hello to him and that was it as I had to run off and go and sign up for the track.
Anyone catch him? His name is Flavio.

I saw him technics, and had a long chat...and a v good look over his car...and sit in it...couldn't quite believe my eyes when I saw 9,660 miles on the clock but what a stunning example of a mk1! Gives me something to aim for with mine

Oh brilliant glad you bumped into him! Shame I wasnt there with you both at the time. He is a nice guy. Basically he is the cousin of my old boss, so met him a few times and we are in the same line of work too, so there is how I know him.

Did you ask him where or who he got it from in the end??

I did and he said it was an ex-AA training car but it wasn't entirely clear how he came to acquire it?! Lucky devil though

My project thread over on Turbo Collective:

Saw this one at Brooklands, metallic Ardesia grey, the same colour as my old one.
