Welcome mate, if you want the previous owners mobile number to ask him about anything, he is a mechanic and lives in harrogate, not far from me. Enjoy the car, fast piece of machinery.

Should become an interesting thread then Jimmy.

Thoughts about the stereo........... suppliers prices for carbon bonnet ???

etc etc. As regards the rear indicator bulbs, I'm assured that Phillips silvered indicator bulbs are far brighter in use that the Silvatec ones.

I have blue side lights on the front which is quite
8) considering the ice blue body colour. Have you changed yours ? How difficult is it to get into the bloody things ???????????

hey Micktype only replaced the main beam bulbs they were bad enough to get to im guessing the light unit has to come out to change the side lights , got some free with the new bulbs but didnt take it on lol.

stereo wise gonna go for a single din alpine unit
