Hi from North Wales

#1

Post by ukshovel »

Hi everyone

My name is Steve and I live in North Wales with my wife Shell. We have a blue gen 3 03 coupe which we love, but got badly stung when we bought it. The airbag fuse had been removed so that the airbag light didnt show. Soon after that we had the dreaded indicator relay fault and the door actuators went. All fixed now thanks to Ross at Tiburon Auto, great guy. Just had the airbags replaced and a new timing belt also. Will be looking in the future to maybe do a few mods money willing. Went on holiday to North Yorks and got caught in the floods, so much so that the water was coming over the bonnet, but she never let me down.

Here is a pic although not a very good one

Thanks guys

Yes ive had bad luck, but love the car and with help and support from the coupe forums and Ross have ultimate faith in it. I stuck with it because shes great to drive and they look stunning even in their standard form. Its just a shame that there was a Ratbag out there who ripped the garage off, who ultimately ripped me off, but thats life. :angry-banghead: :icon-biggrin:
