So been part of Retro rides for 10 years now and never really said much (to much to read and look at ) but about time I put something on hear, so being into my slammed German whips and having many over the years fancy something a bit different, always wanted to do something with a little van but not the norm Caddy and not a fan of the little French vans so a doblo it was as not seen one done before. So hear she is 2005 Fiat Doblo 1.9 jtd and for what it is she's quick so So plans first is a good service belts etc then do something with the ride height as way to high and wheels other than that not sure but I'll add as I do bits , Thanks

This should be interesting. It shares a similer shape with my Cube so I'm looking forward to see how it turns out.

I have the same engine in a Stilo JTD. it is a great engine for what it is, and does respond well to a remap!
bookmarking this! love anything Fiat / Lancia and especially unusual ones.

The JTD engines are great, gearboxes weren't so good though with more power.

Well this is a nice change from the usual VAG vans. It'd be interesting to see how this evolves.

This will be interesting. I borrowed one when my Multipla was being serviced and it was surprisingly quick. It has the same engine as the Multipla - I don't know what gearbox/clutch it has, but if it's similar then be careful on the remap front - I've been told that above about 150bhp the clutches slip and the gearboxes break.

Modded Doblo's have a good following in Turkey! (Sorry, not particularly helpful )
