Turbo, have you deleted your images, because all I can see is the dreaded Photobucket message :?:

I have one too... it's in family property since 1988, where we rebuilt it after the previous owner rolled it down a slope my mother drove it from 1988 till 1998 when she got her first clio B and since then it's mostily sleeping in the garage and we only take it out for a spin a few times a year... but last year I decided to give it a nice rebuild and drive it more often. needs some fresh paint, seat & wheel refurbishing and since the last drive also a new headgasket
it's completely stock except for a strut brace in the engine bay and a piece of gardena-hose that temporarily replaces a broken oil-breather hose
does anyone know where to get those stipes on the side?

Great little cars, theres a few around Birmingham that have been nicely modified. Its a shame that they are remembered by most for this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYElzshQgjg

It's funny because it's pretty much the first BIG bit of publicity KTec got
Look at the seats
I find it hard to find one that I can't help but think..."That Chav (ned) has ruined that car." It's good to see an unmolested one Fredi

can you run them on modern injection fueling?
love to compound charge one of these. plus you have every off the shelf items you'd need to hit big power
old man and i were thinking of that or turbo'd 1*2 lump, would have to sell and grab a basic 3k twingo to do it with. would be a waste on 133, sure crash 133 or 182 could make it tracking parts
you know you want to do it first or go one step further and make the Twingo GTT RWD *repeat twice and drool*

They do have a bit of a chavvy rep but that's all back in the day now! Most of the owners either go for OE which are mint or full blown race machines that can put most cars to shame!
Orb, yea its not to hard to get these running efi the only real prob is making a manifold and then mapping it.two of mine are running efi
I was bidding on a smashed up white 133 to do a 230 engine swap but it never meets the reserve!
