Thanks for the comments all, i did polish it the day before  :) 
Gadge the tyres are 165/65/13, they were on it when i bought it.
I was going to buy new alloy wheels and different sizes tyres but not sure if i will or just keep it original ?

sadly its not quite spotless, it does polish up well but needs a few bits doing, some on the front drivers side arch, a little bit under the side repeater indicator and around the rear wiper spindle.

I hope to touch it up and blend it in once my garage is up and built.

Shielsy your resto thread is PAGES long filled with people telling you what a good job you've done - it's even made it into a magazine so stop complaining when other people commend an honest original car that's probably been ran on a shoe string. Stop being a baby and spoiling other people's thread  >:(

Mintex, do you have any problems with those 165/65/13's rubbing on the arches at all?

I'm just trying out a set of the cinquecento 4-spoke alloys, they came fitted with 165/65/13's and they're all right when going along, but the front right rubs when you hit a speed hump, and the front left rubs under hard braking.
They sometimes also catch when reversing or parking.  ???

No mine are fine and don't rub but i'm on standard wheels.
You might need to change yours for 165/55 R13 with having the cinquecento alloys
