    Car wash recommendations E Hants / W. Suusex?

    I'd like to have the new car hand-washed every couple of weeks, in between valet sessions - so nothing special, just low cost but careful wash & maybe wax. Any suggestions for Portsmouth / Petersfield / Chichester areas? Thanks in advance...

    Fix and Go bottle expiry - problem or not?

    There's a "Fix and Go" compressor in the boot of my GranTurismo, but the label on the bottle of goo says best before (or equivalent) of 2013. Do they need replacing, or has anyone needed to use an old one and did it work or not? Do you know how to replace them?

    Does a GranTurismo have a master switch?

    ...4200 has a rotary dial next to the battery, I switch it off if I go away for more than a week. Does a GranTurismo have an equivalent? I haven't found one in the battery bay.

    Nice problems to have...

    Always assumed the 4200 would be the only Maserati I'd own, but picking it up from MOT/service I saw a bianco fuji GranTurismo and one thing has led to another... Actually that car/seller didn't work out but I found another, better, one and this owner was a pleasure to buy from. Thanks to those...

    Clutch readings: how accurate, how repeatable?

    Happened to be in the garage twice in the space of a month or so, the clutch has gone from 32% worn to 42% in approx. 1k miles. Separately another garage told me that the reading is + or - 10-15% anyway. Since that's the #1 piece of information for buyers/sellers, can it ever go down again...

    Touching up the black stuff on buttons?

    Some of my buttons have got scuffed in recent years. They're covered in a sort of black rubbery finish - what is it and is it restorable/touch-upable? Don't think black paint would blend in!

    Hi all, anyone in Portsmouth or Chichester areas had their headlights restored and can recommend someone? Is a mobile service OK or should I go to them? Will have to get it done before the nights draw in... Thanks!
