I heard that they are really rare... Due to rotting away like aspirin.

Love It:agree::agree::agree::agree::agree:

I was almost going to buy an Uno turbo but after a trip to Southend and watching 4 five GTT's upset a cossie or two I went for the five. **** that was 14 years ago. :cry: Where's the time go.

Class pics!:cool: The five looks so much better than the uno;)

I used to see loads of both cars when I was a kid, haven't seen an uno turbo for probably 5 years or more:eek:

I had an uno turbo mk1 in grey many years ago on a d plate the 1.3 turbo engine version i have to say i.enjoyed it not as much fun as a gtt and not as good looking as a gtt but was fun

I had a g plate UNO turbo just before my first 5 gt and loved it in a straight line but for some reason it never liked corners as I found out twice.
Probably the two most iconic cars of the late 80's early 90's

I know where there is a UNO tucked away, other than that I don't think I've ever seen another one on the road.
The 5 looks miles better though. :agree:

Woowww absolutely awesome pictures :smokin::smokin:

Whats the affect used to make the first few pictures look like they were taken by a camera from the 80s ?

awesome :-)

i'm hoping to repeat a similar shoot but with my turbo clio and Dunc's (used to own 5 turbo van) current Uno build with a lancia lump in it :-)

Renaults still going to be quicker there as well :laugh:
