• I've just been given this little beast, a Seicento Sporting 1.1. I'm 6'5.

    It's been sat for a year though, anything obvious I should do before putting it in for MOT?

  • Fill up the washer fluid... testers can be cunts.

    But they're just doing their job.

  • Run through a pre-MOT checklist like this http://carcaremadeeasy.com/motchecklist.html
    Get a mate help with the lights.

  • It probably doesn't need it, but an oil, oil filter, coolant, and fuel filter change would cost less than £100 and would help. Cabin filter too because there's going to be so much crap in the vents.

  • Check the oil levels? Maybe add engine lubricant to tank? Before turning over?

    I had a seized pot on an old golf through non running.

  • Another fun little car. Not too much power but as we've recently discussed here, theres a lot to be said about driving an underpowered car quickly (when appropriate) and using 95% of the power available unlike faster cars. We had a Cinqucento Sporting and a Punto Sporting through the family fleet when I first started driving and they were both great fun.
