Hello everyone
Woke up with a smile on my face this morning...no, not that....I bought a Coupe yesterday. Beautiful, black...begging me to take her out. 2.0L Auto Gen 3. FSH with cambelt change at 56000 and only 60 k on clock....£1000. Chuffed. What a lot of car for not much money. I feel like I've had a lifestyle upgrade....lol. I might actually clean this car.

Re: Hello everyone
Thankyou all. I have just been out removing a few molecules of dust that I missed yesterday....I am thinking that the naff orangey headlights will be heading south for the Winter for starters- after that who knows. First thing is to fix the electric window driver's side. I accidentally opened it and couldn't close it again on my drive home from buying the car (he did warn me)...doh! I did eventually get it closed with the help of a dent-puller suction thingy and a prayer.I'm about to buy one of a Korean chappie for about 30 quid.

Re: Hello everyone
My wife bought a brand new I10 a couple of months ago and although I initially scoffed I am pretty amazed with it which is what led me down the road to buying a 10 year old car for myself....funny old world innit.

Re: Hello everyone
Ok - wife back in work today so I thought I'd have a go at fixing the non-working electric window (as opposed to tidying the house as per her instructions). First I tried taking apart the button and giving it a good talking to...made no difference. Took off door card and unbolted motor from door frame then undid 4 screws of motor and removed copper wound thingy. It looked pretty black so I cleaned all the copper and sprayed with WD40 and put it all back together and.....bugger all. Ah well, at least I can take it all apart now. Time to contact Mr thingy in Korea methinks.....

Re: Hello everyone
Sometimes that does do the trick with the electrics, especially on the slightly older ones as there's a build up of crap. Alas...
