Stunning, Lovely colour that makes the chrome trim really stand out.

Enjoy your new pride and joy.

Oh, I like the hi-viz bucket. Do they do matching wellies?

Default Bumper off jobs

Hi Mark.
Nice colour, good wheels, best leather for that colour car, below are some of the items that from you photo i would be looking at if it was my car while you have the slam panel & bumper off.

1

yellow dots/ intercooler O-rings replaced Viton only.

White dots/ intercooler hose change as it looks swollen.

orange dots/ condenser looks to be perished so maybe not working as it should, do you have gas in the A/C system ?

red spots/ silver resistor change for a upgrade gold one.

lime green dots/ add a protective rubber to stop the wiring chaffing on the chassis arm.

green/ fuel filter change.

pink/ black block bonnet mod.

light blue/ PCV filter change.

purple inline stat if you need one.

how to's are on here for all the above.

Good luck & progress don't forget ask as many questions you like we are here to help.

PS hopefully sometime this year we can get our Nano meets up and running again you are welcome to come.

Nice car .

I was wondering if Arctic's coloured dots were a test for all of us a bit more experienced folks to see if we could work out what it was and what needed to be done. .

A bit of a reminder of a couple of things I need to do.

Cheers
