I have one in the car yes but if that goes bang I have no back up plan.
Anyway I picked this up yesterday, first impressions when I pulled up was omg so glad o didn't pay more than £100 for its looking very VERY sorry for its self and needs a fair amount of tlc to get it back up to and Ok standard again. Anyway sorted the paperwork jumped in drove 2 miles to the nearest shop so could get a drink, and I fell in love (I have no idea why) there's loads of problems, rev gauge don't work, boost gauge not plumbed in, big knock from back end, looks like injectors leaking (could be old fluid round them not sure but don't look right any way) any way loads of problems but I really do like it.
Got it home tried to fit it on my single drive with my other project on there (Picasso 1.6 hdi) and had know hope was sticking off then end, so I've took it round to my sisters and put it on here front garden (slopping down hill wet grass) so got it on and instantly got it stuck so it'll be staying there for a bit till I can either get this Picasso fished asap or find a long term place to store it and keep it safe. If I carnt do either of thelse then the original plan of braking will continue to happen.
I have put the missus car up for sale so temporarily she can run the zx and I can run the 306 till the Picasso done then she will be having that.
So if any one wants to buy a 2007 Fiat grande punto 1.2 55,000miles 9 month mot £1,500ovno please let me no
