Very nice and worth all the hard work!

Castle Coombe isn't far from me so I wold be up for that!

So are these easy to fit? What tools are needed as don't have many yet? Do you also need to buy a better bulb?

I was about to say enjoy your drive then saw the wheel pic - Dam her!

To be honest that sounds like a good option as I do agree re covering the underside with sealant - just I want to keep the car looking as good as it does now and am getting paranoid Lol! Especially as its out on a road all the time and a daily drive and even more so now as we go into salt on the road time! So your saying - maybe just get a steam clean after the winter, check over and rust treat cover seal any areas where there is rust?

Thanks All Being lazy and not having anywhere to do the work I will probably have to get someone else to do it for me - its probably worth doing just to be on the safe side and keep it looking good. Once spring comes I don't mind doing minor mechanical and body work Thanks all for advice

Not going to be doing a huge mileage as I only work 2.5 miles from home but she will be a daily drive so want to protect her from the elements. don't think I will get chance before the spring but can then get a really good chassis steam clean to get rid of the grime and salt and have a good look at her underneath. Then decide on the way forward if not to bad will probably just do it myself - but equally may pay out the £2-300 it will cost to have it done by someone who knows what they are dong - found a couple of companies on line not too far away - but cant find any reviews. I will then do the top (detailing myself) - get her gleaming for the spring! Starting to build up a little list of niggles - that I want to sort - I am starting to save up now LOL!

Does anyone know why it was changed from 45 to 56?

Mine goes up at just under 60 (95 N Reg) = love it!

Just put in Dehumidifier bags for cars on ebay - loads come up

Hi When I bough the car a few weeks ago - I had a good look underneath (as best I could withought ramp) and all looks solid - what's the thoughts on getting it waxoiled and undersealed? What's the best products and processes Does anyone know of a good company not far from Swindon? Thanks

Nano Technology - Car cleaning product - had not heard of it and now just googled it - loving the idea!! How hard is it to apply?

I had an Alfa Spider (1996)up until about 5 years ago - designd by Pininfarino - lovely car to drive but constant problems - maybe I see a theme in my choice of cars?!

Very nice - does it write nicely?

I think the Speedmaster is a great looking watch - especially the modern one but am tempted to find one from 1995 to go with my car

Thanks will have it checked out!

My ABS light keeps coming on every now and then Most its off but its been on twice) - (brakes feel fine) could this be a sensor problem - is this a common fault? Will get it checked out after Christmas - haven't got time before then!

Lol - just found the post some of you were talking about when I joned the forum a couple o weeks ago!!! OK i'm the one who bought the car and you will be glad to know I dint pay the £10k - apparently they wanted to make some space for new stock. Joking apart though - she did polish up really well - although as my daily ride not so shiny today due to the recent weather - will be clean again on Saturday. Drives beautifully. Although there are a few minor faults to deal with. Hope to meet up with a few of you next year - i'm no expert and would welcome someone in the know taking a good look over her to see what problems I can expect or things I can do to improve the car! Just need to find a decent garage in Swindon who can help me look after her.

Will top it up and keep a very close eye on the levels - thanks

Thanks both Ooops - I feel like a "Newbie" still Lol! - Ok message received and will post in other areas - Thanks again

Me again! Ok - just taken a look at the coolant is just below the minimum level - can this be topped up with just water or do I need any particular coolant. I cant see any record in the huge file I have of what has been used in the past - can you mix? Oh and had my initiation of owning a Corrado - and my first expense - new battery on Sunday - no biggy I suppose according to the records the last battery was 7 years ago Thanks

USR and Green or red sounds good - and not because im racing and need the extra stopping power - but less brake dust and longer lasting sounds good to me (along with better brakes)! And if it helps resolve the problem - then all the better So from the rear - would this need a full re-build with new calipers as well to resolve the handbrake issue?

Its a drone I suppose and not even applying brakes - I had read somewhere that the green stuff pads were really good and less brake dust and less effectec by rust? I want to keep the car as original as possible (but im not going to be anal about it) - and am thinking changes to the brakes in this way don't really count - will see how the noise goes and once I have saved my pennies - will look at the brake set up all round May just do the pads with the original discs and see how that goes? Cheers
