Sounds about it Thanks - I'm actually surprised they fit - The SR Diamond cut wheels have a centre cap with a raised centre to accommodate the sticky-out hub which they appear to not have. Glad they fit though - I have been caught out by not getting the exact ones before.

Photos might help a sale Bud

TJB - they should have the Part Number stamped on the back? Can you let me know the ebay sellers name and I can mail him to see if he can get anymore? Cheers

Be good to see another Deltisti ForzaLancia especially here in the Midlands. I'll keep my eye out. As far as driver experience goes they are not as engaging to drive as the Alfa but certainly rarer. You will not believe how many people ask about mine once it was correctly badged. FYI my mate Paul Gilbert @ http://www.motor-mech.co.uk/index.asp - looks after mine and all our 'stable' so if you ever need anything - he's right next to the Bullring.

Nice one TJB - where did you get the wheel centres from and can you confirm the Part number?

I like the Limited 18" 'er's

Blimey not heard of Tanc Barratts for a while. I used to take my old Fulvia to Tanc which he sold on as well as my Giulia 105 Coupe. Didn't even realise he was still going!

Yes sorry Andrew I meant the Rocker. I guess its only plastic so possibly not too bad if anything has got inside. Still strange to hear though.

Surprised that's snapped? Must have been on extremely tight or no Oil Changes for that to happen?! If its spinning around suggests the thread has gone which in turn may mean you have 'remains' already in the head. Never heard of one of those breaking before tbh. At worst may be advisable to remove the whole head?

Mikey (above) should be along soon and may be able to give you the part number as he has the same car - Just use a Bravo spring. Use my mate Paul Gilbert at MotorMech in central Birmingham - http://www.motor-mech.co.uk/index.asp Paul has looked after all my cars for years including my Delta. Top bloke.

if you do not know when the plugs were last changed I would do them now. Just make sure you have a long plug socket as they are buried deep down within the head.

Jos share the headrest details here please!

My online eper access is slow at the moment - better during the evening when its quiet so will check later - As Cassino says though it will be common across all FCA vehicles that use the MA engine - pretty sure it'll be the same as the one for the MiTo - https://www.shop4parts.co.uk/?name=store&op=Results&category=14&secondary=35&opts=3753&term=Alfa_Romeo_Mito_1.4_TB_MultiAir_(135/170_Bhp)_Sumps

Some great roads up there TJB I have a friend in Bridge of Weir so have travelled around there a few times - lovely part of the world. You are probably right about the colour. Been a while since I've had the Brochure out - The colour code should be on a chromed sticker under the nose edge of the bonnet. Why don't you consider wrapping the roof and pillars Matte black? Alot of Delta's had that finish - would complete the car IMO. My Mum's partner has had 75's for years - they are really comfy but you can really feel the weight they carry! The Delta is typical in many an FCA C segment product in having a fairly hard ride. Let us know if you need any Lancia changeover advice

Yes seems to be popular for our Italian colleagues - they like having twin reverse lights - either sides..... Will keep an eye out for you

Well done TJB - that Bronze (Savannah?) colour is quite scarce. Enjoy the drive and stick along here for the journey....... BTW Whereabouts in Bonnie are you?

Nice one - just google that Part number and there are loads for sale - ebay etc.

If you want to message me your VIN number I can look on eper (the FCA Parts system)

Nice one Andrew - a friend of mine bought a nearly new Integrale Evo2 in Giallo many years ago which I drove - and loved! Just wish I had bought it off him!

Unfortunately for the Series 3 Delta it will forever be compared to the original Delta even though its by name alone so no-one considers the car as a Performance hatch at all. The 1.4 MA is pretty decent on the Motorway as well for the capacity it has............

Can't see it listed in the handbook

Keep looking - I'll let you know if I see anything suitable although probably even rarer North of the border. Let us know how you get on - be good to have another Deltisti here............

Mine worked when I got it but steadliy ceased to kick in - however I am still on my original battery so presuming that is getting low (the manual states this is a factor) however with no other issues. TBH I'm not bothered about it working. I have noticed whenever I have disconnected the S/S lead off the battery to do some work then reconnect it - it works again on a few initial startups - guessing the ECU is clearing itself when I do that before realising the battery age............

Think I need an MoT mate!

In my experience any change in pedal weight and issues with gearing are ultimately going to lead to a failed Clutch and/or cylinders. Have they ever been changed and whats your mileage?
