Love this! I used to have a black one and fitted a 1250 Punto engine to it. I ran it for a while then sold it to my mate who scrapped it when the tax ran out  Love your wheels!! |

Good stuff better without the stripes and the wheels are quite unique. I have a soft spot for these cars I loom ridiculous in them I'm 6'3" but I love these little hatch backs

Another fan for the wheels, saw some recently & thought they should be polished/spun/machine finished but white works so well on your car with its bright colour.
Like the simplified look of the black 'b' pillars too. Made me think of a Y10 inspired faux carbon rear hatch & Polo style painted bumper lower surfaces & X-19 ladder stripes joining the bumpers. But it's perfect as is.

Love it, that's the colour I had my smart roadster painted. (Porsche peppermint is the same colour as Fiat Festival Turquoise. It's nice how shiny it is, most of the turquoise cinqs I've seen have become faded and matt-look. |

First time I have seen those wheels on a cinq! Are they Lancia Montcarlo?
Colour is perfect! Satin black bumpers would be even better - I have my MK2 punto abarth bumper in satin as its a black bumper car...
Love it!
I also really like the original mirrors.
Iv had 4 cinqs and cat let go of mine! watch/underseal the tops of the rear wheel wells and rear of the cills. Thats where my L reg car went.
