    Looking for a petrol Ghibli "S" or facelift

    I'm not in a particular rush but looking for either an "S" from 2017/18 or a facelift car up to maybe 2020 which has 350 hp. I prefer blue or black, and don't want grey or white. A light colour interior would be preferred but I'm open on that point. I'm unclear whether they all have heated seats...

    GranTurismo Alarm Siren - I think I've given up

    In case it helps anyone, the siren is on the upper left when you are looking into the wheelarch. If it is just the siren you can avoid removing the whole liner.

    QP V intermittent stereo

    Hi, I wonder if there are any ideas on this. The stereo display comes up but there isn't any sound, except on rare occasions when it works fine. It is a 08 plate ZF 4.2. The amp has been replaced (it was a battery drain) but otherwise no other clues! Any suggestions welcome. Thanks

    Fulvia

    Ah I didn't know that. As said, fitting the doors nicely can be tricky....

    Fulvia

    for an anorak fact, the S1 had alloy doors, boot and bonnet. The quarter lights were fixed. S2 cars with steel doors but opening quarter lights. What seems to have happened here is that the S2 quarter lights have been fitted to the alloy doors. I've done that myself in the past and it is the...

    Fulvia

    Well I am not very good at looking at cars from pictures, if you see what I mean. It is an S3 but the interior has been re-trimmed. It would not have had piping and would have had headrests. The yellow rocker cover is non-original (in the style of the HF cars) but easily fixed of course. The...

    One car you wished you had never sold

    If I am restricted to one, my Lamborghini Espada. Lots of fun, amazing noise and spectacular looks to my eyes. A very close second would be my Fulvia HF. Owned for about 18 years, bought in bits, great road car, turned it into a racer, the most fun car to own. Only sold it to get a faster racer...

    Wtd - Alfa 159

    Thanks, I prefer to think of it as "experienced" :-) I am just south of Chelmsford, J 14 of the A 12, 10 min from J 28 of the M25 I should have added that I have a long motorway commute (70 miles each way, though I only do it once or twice a week) so it has had mainly motorway miles.

    Lamborghini Urus

    I agree with those who said it will sell lots. Not sure it is my cup of tea but I'd like to see one in the flesh first.

    I have a 159 2.4 lusso saloon, grey with red interior if that is of interest. We have had it for almost six years, and done about 60k miles (now 132k miles). Always been looked after mechanically, and won't be expensive. I am on 07771611681

    Auto Italia Integrale range

    I thought it was made for Agnelli, although what he did to deserve it I don't know ....

    Stop and tail light out but not the bulb....

    thanks, that was good advice. A bit of tweaking and we're fine. Good job as off to Italy tomorrow :-)

    Stop and tail light out but not the bulb....

    Apologies, it is an 08 QP V 4.2 litre. It does not have LED rear lights, just conventional bulbs.
