To be honest, i wouldnt be seen dead in it. I mean like if i was stranded in a city 30 miles from home, and my mate sed il give u a lift in that, i would prob have a jog, PMSL!!!!
Black out the windows and lower it right down on alloys and it'd look fairly decent. Also the front end is basically an Fiat Uno. You might be able to find an old Uno Turbo to use for an engine swap...120bhp as standard and very tunable. Would give most modern cars (VXR, ST) a bit of a scare!!
