I had a pax lap round the ring in a 1.2 8v track car.. to be fair the driver was very good, but the little cinq hooned round, even overtaking the odd porsche round corners

MB7201

I've been instructed under direct order ( ) to tell you that the crx is one of his mates and he doesn't live in reading, a couple of his mates does which is probably why its been seen there

GazzaG

spoke to the guy about the car

bloody good

RobCarden

love the yellow ones!.....

so is the punto engine a straight swap then?

xr2i-carl

didnt know they even did a turbo one?

whats the spec? standard one

Miss Fiesta Turbo

Fucking ugly.... but go well

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder if we all liked the same things then the "modified" car scene wouldnt be interesting at all really

Punto turbo engine pretty much a no go, the Uno turbo engine is a go-er but with a LOT of work, the n/a punto 60/75 etc will go in but its no turbo

Abarth cinqs were just the bodykit and accessories nothing else, the turbo's are either a Novitec or a Van Aaken conversion (some may know these from the ztec turbo conversions iirc?)

At the end of the day as im sure some of the RST guys can relate to, if you want a fast car you buy a fast car, if you want a fast fiesta or a fast cinq, then look no further

p.s. Not going to have an estimate at the power as its had quite a bit done since its last RR and is well overdue being re-setup, and it'd be like arguing penis size with no proof

rallycross

I had one of these it was a real odd ball car, converted by Van Aken from new with a tiny little turbo, stiffer suspension etc was quite quick, always used to make me laugh was far faster than anyone would expect it to be.
At the end of the day its a crap Fiat though so its a ll a bit pointless really!
