Bad points:
currently has an earthing issue causing the stack Temp guage to underread. (55degrees) Ive changed both the blue and brown senders and ive been told it must be an earthing issue. Temp is constant and the radiator fan definitely works, comes on when you unplug the sender) so doesnt concern me.
Front is stone chipped
Clutch pedal bush is squealing (common problem) so have bought the eliseparts kit to replace, not yet fitted.
