1999 Fiat Seicento Sporting review from UK and Ireland
"A great little runaround"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Only one major problem was a fault in the electrics of the fueling system.
A weld on my custom made exhaust blew.
General comments?
This car I brought thinking I would not need to modify it much. Soon after owning however I got a bit fed up with the lack of power.
Now I have fitted an ITG induction kit and custom made exhaust system. Thanks to the induction kit, four branch manifold and straight through exhaust it pulls better and sounds better.
The looks with the Abrath kit are superb and handling is amazing. It does however handle better now it has wider wheels.
A fantastic little car.
