2014 Fiat Punto first car (UK)

Recently passed my test and looking at a 2014 Punto 1.4 Easy, £2.3k, 70k miles, full MOT and Service history and will be MOT and serviced before I collect.

Test drove it and all seemed okay, no electrical issues, all pedals fine, clutch fine, gearbox etc. Very tidy inside and out no dings or nicks minutes the odd tiny graze.

Is there anything to be wary of with Punto's particularly this Model and age beyond the "Fix It Again Tony" comments?

Reason for choosing are primarily price and cheap to insure so I fully understand that there will be certain bells and whistles I won't get.

Engine problem

Hi! Looking for input from people who know.

2012 Fiat 500 won’t start 2nd and 3rd cylinders have no compression (exact reason unknown)

Rough estimate to rebuild/replace engine? I’m in the DC/VA/MD area

Worth it to rebuild? Better off replacing engine? Or just not worth the expense at all?

Barn Lancia Thema 2.0 16V

Good evening, everyone!

My family has had this Lancia Thema 2.0 16V stored in a shed for many years. As you'll see in the video, it's quite dirty. I believe a good cleaning will completely transform the car. The interior is in pretty good condition overall, aside from the back seat and the headliner. Since it's been relatively well-protected from the elements, the exterior is very well-preserved, showing only some surface rust in a few spots.The most critical part is the engine, which is currently resting on the ground.

I'd like to ask for your opinion: Does it seem the motor is in irreparable state? If I were to disassemble and clean/restore the parts, could there be hope? My intention is to gradually restore this car as a project, but I first want to understand how feasible it is.

Feel free to ask questions and share tips about people or groups who might be able to help me.

Thank you!

Emissions, 1988 126p

Going to take my 1988 Fiat 126p to get tested for emissions tomorrow fully expecting it to fail. The car was manufactured without a catalytic converter, as in 1988 Poland, the environment was the least of their concerns.

I’m in Colorado and I know the emissions testing is relatively strict. I don’t fall under any exemptions, as my car is not 1975 or older. Anyone ever been in a similar predicament and know a way around it?

Does anyone here know how the communication between the control keys on FIAT steering wheels works?

Hello, Does anyone here know how the communication between the FIAT steering wheel control buttons works?

I am in Brazil and I have a Fiat TORO that has the SPORT control on the console, below the multimedia center. I would like to know if it is possible to use the FIAT Pulse control block that has the SPORT control button on the steering wheel as in the photo. I bought the FIAT Pulse control block and plugged it into my FIAT TORO, all the buttons worked, except the SPORT button. Is there any way to activate this function through the steering wheel button?

Aftermarket radio removal

So I have a 2006 grande punto and someone before me has put in a pioneer radio and a fascia over it, i got one with bluetooth to swap it but the pioneer has an unremovable face bracket and has 2 little access holes on the sides to push in the radio removal tools.

It just won't budge and I can't remove the face to see what I'm doing, any ideas? apart from tearing the dash apart ofc...

Fiat ulysse 4x4 mod

I would like to turn a fiat ulysse in a camper, I've found an already started project near me that only needs a new engine. As i am planning to swap it with a jtd (not sure if the 1.9 or the 2.2) and I would like to use it in situations where a 4x4 would be useful (dirt and snow) I am asking if there is some already existing transmission that would fit quite well without the need of doing some Frankensitein with other cars part. Obviously I am not looking for a true offroad transmission, just something to have more grip in certain conditions

Fiat 500L 2015 day-/foglight broken?

The left daylight, in my recently bought used Fiat 500L, is loose. I looked into the service hole in the wheel house and saw this. Just to be sure, before I try to find one on Ebay, the marked points in the images is clearly from the light-frame right? So what I need is replacement light. Thanks

I heard a rumor I won't be able to get my fiat 500L parts in Canada anymore?

Anyone know anything about this? I have a 2015 Fiat 500L I has about 160,000km on it. If this rumor is true I need another car very soon!
