No problem mike - Kenilworth is literally 5 mins drive from me so let me know the next time you are in the area. Do you have the original Sales brochure/book? If not I have a spare copy you can have when you are around here. Cheers

Yeah don't list to that MikeyRules - he's a bodge-it merchant .......... Whichever way you do the Grille the retaining clips will break off! I was very gentle and still broke a few. Were those the cloth headrests on ebay? I was watching them but holding out for a leather seat. You just won't find them without the seats. I've got some Lancia logo's to stick on like someone else did but still not got around to fixing them. People have no idea what that wing is anyway. One of my lads works for Aston Martin and he thought it was their wing logo to start with! There are some online eper sites but you need to access them in the evenings as they are too busy in the day and you always get knocked off. I will check part numbers for you asap. I just went with the stick-on badges tbh - the black and chrome logos go well. They do last although I change them every year or so - they are only about a fiver for a set. I'm too tight to fork out £80 or so for a set from Italy though I might get around to it at some point. Incidentally did you know if you secure a part number from eper you can order anything via a UK Fiat dealer. If its on eper they can get it for you. I even sourced my replacement MA Actuator from Research in Nuneaton. I think the etching was done with a Watchmakers glass polishing kit which you can polish out the old logos. The sill plates I had a Lancia logo made up - its on one of the threads. Pity you are not nearer - anyway enjoy the car and standing out from the crowd. Any issues/questions just ask here...............

Blah blah blah! Mine was changed over and I'd done about 50 miles by the time you'd finished yours!

Indeed! I was being polite!

Thanks for the kind words. A non-nav petrol SR in white with the black roof was my preference, then with Peterborough being not too far from Norwich it all lined up. I do think it is a tad pricey & he won't budge on that but there aren't many about & the mileage is probably one of the lowest to be found I suppose. Not that that's a priority for me but I appreciate it does affect valuations. And I guess he has to pay to register & MOT it, which no doubt I will be covering! I've looked through your thread about Lancia badging which looks great; yours plus I think nearly all of the SRs I've seen have the dark alloys but on this one they are just silver. Perhaps because it is white, I don't know? I also don't know which centre caps to go for, I've seen on here people saying they're specific to size but the 17" do usually seem to be darker. I have headrests, airbag, rear & side badges but I held off wheel caps & grille until I knew what car I was getting (if it had been a dark colour I'd have gone for the Momo grille), as it is I think it'll be the 'waterfall' grille & the light silver caps I've not come across yet!
