It's 106 miles to Chicago, we've got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark, and we're wearing sunglasses.

4x100, ET 38, 15x6.5j. On a set of 185/55 tyres, they should fit... Maybe.

Fiat Uno TwinAir. Quite a good car by most accounts with a particularly good engine in this guise I've read. So why did it end up with such an utter s##t-vert?
