Fiat Uno Turbo mk1 why i love it

[@teddouglas953]

I owned one when I was 22 - I'm 55 now and still watching these reviews. These really were incredible cars, and quite civilized around town. Lowered mine by 25mm and improved the overall handling but otherwise left it stock to cope with the fragile engine! Massively underrated cars. I've driven VW, Audi, BMW since but the Uno Turbo ie is still my favourite car by some distance.

[@simonmiller5165]

I still want one again after 20 years. I’m even looking abroad at clean non rusted examples in Italy. Wish I’d never sold it back in the day ! Great cars. Thanks for the video.

[@autosportivobedford]

Thank you for the comment

[@kevinjekyll1521]

I had one of these, loved it, I wish I had never sold it. I am currently trying to find another. I did manage to find and buy 2 20vt Coupes, these cars are just as you say fun...

[@rootsrock2394]

Will always remember having a ride in an uno turbo when I was about 9. Never been so excited/scared in a car since!

[@Tolis-py2dc]

I am glad I found out about this channel.These are cars I love,in a language that I understand.I 'll give some thumbs up for the effort and the content

[@plbingham]

Had two last edition Mk1 of these, brilliant cars - one red, one black. Wish I had one now. Red was chipped and went like the wind!!

[@Englishsea24]

You'll never find one of these cars now. Be glad you had the experience 😊

[@plbingham]

@@Englishsea24 there's a few about, but if I was going to buy a fun car to restore and enjoy, it would be an Esprit S1

[@peterthwaites5891]

That stunning Uno Turbo brings back some great memories from my younger days... I had 2 of them in the 1980`s, absolutely fantastic little buzz bombs, i now own the nearest modern equivalent i can find, an Abarth 595..

[@Andyinth]

Your video brings back some great memories, thank you. My first company car (1988) was a red mk1 Uno Turbo (7,500 pnds new incl a Momo steering wheel). I managed to clock up 90,000 miles in 3 years, having the driving fun of my life. At 90k, the turbo cracked and the cost to repair/replace was greater than the 2nd hand value of the car, so the company sold it. Driving was never the same again

[@karlhenrys]

The first turbo car I ever drove these cars are amazing! Great video.. 👍

[@gazzasearle123456]

Grew with these cars in the 90s such fun we had where so quick for the size of the engine!!smiles for miles👊👊👊

[@fatwalletboy2]

Love to hear a Punto GT pull off like that 500 did at the end. Back in the day in my new Focus RS 2.0 Mk1 I had a guy in a Mk1 Uno Turbo pull on me. So lightweight and fast for a 1.3 proving you dont need mega power to still be quick.

[@Jasonr2803]

I had an 1987 E plate in this exact same colour and was my first car, I loved it. Mine had the digital dash and those factory alloys were polished. Brings back so many memories watching this video. Great video!

[@Kingdonnerkebab]

I'm in love with this car.

[@emmastokes7262]

I love these cars and always will .... fantastic video ant .... keep doing what you do best darl x

[@Emanicas]

great story and a really cool car I didn't know of. Definitely something I would love to try.

[@paulleeson2344]

Still my favourite car in your garage by far. 👍

[@conorhanley9009]

Loving the show guys some fantastic Italian machines I’ve owned 2 mk1 uno turbos and couple of gt puntos I love the series 1 myself looool a hgt bravo and a couple of 164 alfas keep up the good work guys big up from Ireland I’d love to see some Alfa Romeo if yeay work on them especially 164s

[@moorii09]

Great video mate - huge respect for painstakingly saving and ensuring such a rare sight these days remains in pride of place amongst your collection of other Italian thoroughbred beauties ❤️👍

[@alfonsoinsogna8633]

Amazing car love the uno turbo I used to own one in Italy.

[@jamesralphphotography3901]

Cant wait to see the lancia! great first video guys well done!

[@stephenduffy9370]

Lovely video, clearly from the heart - which is pretty rare these days. Keep it up - subscribed! 👍🏼.

[@De-ou8fl]

I love how the UK is really into these. I don't know how it came be, but it seems the most Uno Turbo enthusiasts come from the UK. I've got an MK2 1.0 Fire engine with whopping 33kW and an MK2 1.4 Turbo Racing. First one was my grandfathers car that I am restoring and spent my childhood in. The second one is just something I've always wanted. Cheers from Slovakia

[@fhwolthuis]

Found your channel through a twitter post. What a great car, Antony! And a good story too. I always have loved Italian cars, when I was a kid my uncle had a FIAT dealership so my parents drive FIATs for a long time. My own first car (around 1999) was a 1991 Alfa 33 1.7 ie. Great car! Currently I own a FIAT Bravo 198 150 T-Jet Emotion, which I had chipped at Squadra tuning here in the Netherlands to 172hp. Great car, I love me a comfy sleeper 😃👍🏻🇮🇹 Greets from Amersfoort, the Netherlands

[@autosportivobedford]

Thank you so much. Thanks for watching

[@colinbown5788]

Not many of these about anymore - this one’s a keeper, that’s for sure! Not my cup of tea… but a true Italian treasure…… this thing will just keep moving up in value…. Possibly one of the best examples out there “concourse quality”

[@danelawman2516]

Bought a new one in 1986 dark metalic silver.....hit a dog and it was a write off....the dog was fine! loved that car.

[@bungadin2684]

I had 2 of those back in the day.. I'd absolutely love to get another one

[@Peterpanic-c3h]

I had a D reg one back in 1995, D531 DPR, absolutely loved that car. It was already pretty frilly around the edges by then, but it went like a scolded cat. I got rid of it after a year or so and replaced it with a Peugeot 205 1.6 GTi which was a big mistake, it felt absolutely gutless after the Uno. Watching this video has made me really want one again, I really wish I had somewhere to store it back in the day and just kept it. The Uno and Subaru Impreza Turbo I had a few years later are the cars I still wish I owned today.

[@taylordudley3673]

My second ever car, 1987 Mk1 in Grey, janspeed exhaust, dump valve, obligatory Kn57 kit, adored it, probably my favourite car I've ever owned, hence why I'm here. Rust killed it obviously.

[@merlindavis4719]

Brilliant video Ant 👍👍

[@nigelhill46]

I'm proper gelous I had one identical colour On hot days I use to remove the screws from the back windows and take them out and drive round all day . All credit to you you've done a cracking job

[@stevewoodford7014]

I`ve had two of these in the early Nineties Great fun

[@grotesmurf1]

Lovely Vid Ant, and you were spot on, when everything is against you and it seems your swimming against the tide, there's always the Uno to keep you going and every time you drive it, brings a big fat smile on your face, I know where your coming from amico. Looking forward to the next one (so hard not to swear talking about something you really love 😄)

[@radicaldoasfalto]

great video , been watching our work for a few years , im restoring one , red , 1987 , love that colour you have , it fits like a glove , keap up the good work

[@conorhanley9009]

Would love to hear more on how much work was done on this as it was restored that colour is class same as one I had same wheels too I just love em original tbh

[@markbridge427]

Superb! Great film well done. 👌🏼

[@Globalbloke]

I bought one and owned one when I was 19, I'm now 49. This car taught me how to drive, unforgiving in the wet and seat of your pants in the dry. Awesome little car, would love to add one to my collection nowadays if I could find a decent ne.

[@autosportivobedford]

Thanks for sharing!

[@Globalbloke]

@ want to sell yours? 👀👍

[@howiegreen1646]

Haveing owned three uno turbos and I have great memories of checking them of the transporter when new. Go on give some welly 😂👍👍👍👍

[@torquecars2338]

Cool little vid mate, nice one

[@phillipstewart-forshaw4515]

Had a C reg D reg F reg Mk1 and H reg Mk2! Love these cars. Wish I could afford another one at current prices😕

[@benbrowne5971]

Cant wait to see the integrale feature 🔥🔥🔥

[@James0879-p9c]

What a car!

[@portamurda]

I remember, the dealership I worked for, bussed us all down from Leeds, to the docks, to pick them straight up, straight to a valeters and drive them back…just to get them into the showrooms first…(only to be beaten to it, but they were the first in Yorkshire)

[@portamurda]

Oh…and one broke down outside Liecester, but luckily it was just the hose off the intake, quick tightening and we were back on the road

[@williamgaches2096]

Great vid!

[@doddsalfa]

The Unos I did drive loved going around corners

[@Oyvind88]

Great video and love Fiat turbo, rare in Norway😎❤🇳🇴

[@rezaq1]

I had one of these as my second car, a red one, registration E53 EMY. I used it whilst at uni, and did a number of mods including a 4” Scorpion exhaust. I remember one day coming out to the car in the uni car park; the exhaust was stuffed with bananas. This was the mid 90’s.

[@john-joevollans9258]

Nice work fellas.

[@stephenpagano-pagile]

Great video. I'm bringing my Alfa to you soon for sure.

[@conorhanley9009]

Hey guys did this imo need much in the way of bodywork as in welding ? I’m thinking of restoring one but I’m gonna have to see how bad the body is before I commit it’s been in a shed for years a mk 1 1988 in the same blue color same seats too

[@blackghost769]

Me2❤🎉

[@pauloalmeida9985]

Hello. Colour? Name and Code? Thanks

[@antonydamiano9823]

❤️

[@rezaq1]

I’m sure that’s a 1.4 MK2 turbo interior The MK1 had a red check trim I’m sure

[@LMDF2000]

Early MK1 uno turbos had a red fiat logo plastered over black upholstery and from 87 onwards if I recall correctly they had the same one you see in this video, MK2’s had gray checkered upholstery
