Dan_Henderson Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 So last night I picked up a punto 1.4 turbo gt for £100!Mot til October tax til the end of the monthFull samco hose kit and braided hoses,shiny bits, strut braces, lowered on shocks an springs, full stainless exhaust , oil cooler, front mount intercoolerBIG PROBLEM, it won't start, nothing happens when you turn the key, all dash lights but it won't turn over, Alarm on te car is nuts so I'm hoping if I remove that it might turn over, I put a + from battery to starter and it turned over but didn't firePlans are to break if I can't get it running but if I can get it running it will be fully stripped and painted with standard bumpers and fully stripped interiorChavtastic!!Can't complain for £100 Quote
Matt1878 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 (edited) Well isn't that hideous! .. Looks like he drove through halfords and came out with everything attached haha!!But for £100 .. Could make some good money on that if you rid it of the horrible fast car appearance and got it running. Edited March 11, 2013 by Matt1878 Quote

Turbo Goose Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 I'd take the bodykit off and put standard punto bumpers on, strip it, leave the steelies on. Sleeper it!!!! Quote
Josh@TunerLifestyle Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 wut defuqqqqqqqq! for £100 thats alright if you bought it to strip! sell it all and spend some dosh on the starlet Quote
Banbury Glanza Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Defo agree with sleeper strip interior, some shitty wheels and loads of boost haha Quote
Turbo Goose Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Someones spent some money on that dash and door cards Quote
morgey Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Get it running put it back to stock and advertise the fiberglass on the fastcar or max power forum, some chav will buy it for silly money, then sell it before it breaks lol Quote
StuDoc 72 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 A fucking cool car that has been raped by a bunch of max power cruisers!!! Get an abarth kit on it and get it yellow it will look the dogs danglies. Quote
Socks Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 That's been proper Barry'd! Id get it running and fuck it off if it was me... Shame its got all that gay shit stuck too it... In Standard form it'd be worth some money! Quote
Dan_Henderson Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 Where to start? Trying to get this French shot running!Ripped out about 50 car lengths of wire from shitty neons,leds,speakers,amps,switches for everything,gauges, aftermarket alarm an all sorts of shitFull interior is coming out tomorrow and try and put everything back standard Quote
Dan_Henderson Posted March 11, 2013 Author Posted March 11, 2013 These any good or just cheap useless shite? Quote
Billy SR Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 it's a shame that isn't standard, i'd say sell it for spares on a punto forum and fund a conversion for the starlet. real turbo as it will probably cost more than the value of the car making it standard. Quote
pick1 Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Cheap mate I believe check eBay sure I've seen em on there could be wrong though , n it's a shame my mate has had a couple of these and with the right mods there bloody nippy motors Quote
yaristurbo Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 These any good or just cheap useless shite?35 new just a poor excuse do boost control I'm afraid Quote
Liam_D Posted March 11, 2013 Posted March 11, 2013 Holy shit balls that's terrible! Such a shame as in standard form these can be weapons! Quote

Dan_Henderson Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 Lol I know it's itallian and that's the 2nd time today I've typed French lol! Idiot Quote
Critic Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I would just strip it completely down, sell anything you can off it.And weigh the rest in.. Quote
daniel_g Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 I'd get it running, tie a chain round the engine with the other end round a tree, then reverse like fuck. Film it, put it on youtube and the vid can get reposted on here every few months. Like all those vw golf vids. Quote
aaddzz123 Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Looks like a lot of work went into the dash and doorcards... Shame because it's horrible imo lol! Suppose if they were flocked as they are, would look sexual.... Keep us updated mate! Quote
