  1. Yes it must have, as when I logged in on the Saturday afternoon to see if it had a 'buy it now' price it wasn't listed! Once they've sold they disappear off the site, so you have no idea how much for unless you watched the auction end... annoying dot com...
  2. Never had that problem to be honest! I'm pretty sure I got well over 25k out of front discs...Firstly stay away from ATS, and find yourself a decent Indie!
  3. I guess you have two options. 1. See an FCA indie with diag and see it can be disabled in the settings. 2. Buy a new battery.

    Springs

    The last generation of Bravo, so think from 2007 onwards...

    Springs

    Yes use fiat bravo springs. They are exactly the same!
  6. Must admit I'd have another GT cloverleaf 170 with the q2, if I could find a low mileage minter.
  7. I loved my grey one as prefer dark metallics, to lighter colours. Although must admit the white works too, but only if it has the black roof... I guess for you it depends how long you're prepared to wait!? A4C is Motorpoints px site.
  8. Sorry it's a trade only website to sell off part exchanges. (Auction 4 cars) Yeah I've seen the petrol se on fleabay... Dare I say the diesels the better car. Great little engine the 1.6jtdm.
  9. Just spotted a 1.6jtdm Grey 11 plate (RO11 FUE) Delta Se with 55k and full service history on A4C. Standard cloth spec and manual air-con but with rear parks. There's a few cosmetic blemishes to the bodywork, and it's been keyed down one side, but nothing serious that couldn't be fixed easily. Oh and annoyingly only 1 key! Trade auction ends tonight, and currently no bids... (Starts at £1450) but I reckon if unsold it will be on a 'buy it now' over the weekend. Could be cheap entry into Delta ownership for someone!?

    Delta Tyres

    Wow that IS cheap! Yep I really liked them. Not sure on wear rate, but don't think they were too bad, and grip in wet and dry was impressive, plus not too noisy either.
  11. Well they don't indicate, so why would they care about blinding you!

    Springs

    Wowsers that is ridiculus! I can't quit remember the exact amount mine Bravo ones were, but from memory i'm pretty sure they were around £35 each? You should ALWAYS replace both springs on the same axis, so just be careful only doing one...
  13. Great to hear you've got it Mike! Keep us updated as it would be great to hear how you get on! Good luck with it all, and hopefully it works out fairly straight forward and not too expensive either!

    Delta Tyres

    The last set I fitted to the Delta was Avon ZV7's and I have to say I thought they were superb for the money! Not sure on current prices as tyres fluctuate so much, but well worth a look.
  15. I killed a 1.2 in the Tuscan Montalbano mountains! The hire company had to come and take it away! Absolute sheet box it was... Couldn't pull the skin off a rice pudding. They replaced it with a twinair which was hilarious and quite quick considering it's only half an engine.
  16. The only problem with the ypsilon is the engine choice. The 4 cylinder 1.2 petrol is woeful, the 1.3jtdm is ok, as is the 875cc twinair poss the bbest but not many were sold unfortunately.
  17. Yes totally agree on the poor quality front... especially given how expensive they are to replace!!
  18. Haha this year I might have a Ypsilon or a Fiat 500 myself to be fair … As that Stelvio last year lived most of it's two weeks hire sat outside the vineyard! So an expensive ornament it was!!! Bloody lovely though!
  19. I actually don't think it's the LED's. I'm pretty sure it's the circuit board inside the light cluster. The plastic housing for the light cluster lets in damp and that will what will be erroding away at the circuits. Don't forget the light unit still functions on remote alarm/disarm, so that shows the actual LED's still perform, just not when the signal for indicating is sent.
  20. Looks great Tim! That sits nicely even without the bumper cut out.
  21. Hate to say those imortal words... But I told you that yesterday... Been there... Worn the tee shirt. ?
  22. Guys, when my light unit failed it had the same symptoms. I.e. would flash on alarm, but not indicate. I replaced the whole unit...
  23. You were lucky then. Not all do, but more than not... Our Twinkie was a 147 and it was pretty planted. The 156 I had was one of the last, so a Sport on a 55 plate and therefore diesel.
  24. I do love the TS engine, very underated, if you can find one that doesn't use oil! My last one drank about 1ltr per 1k!!! Apparently that's within tolerance too!
  25. To be honest I missed an Alfa red GTA Sportwagon a few weeks back. It failed to sell on eBay, and went to someone who beat me to calling the guy. Think it went for £4800, so about half what they're up for on buy it now! Bargain!
