Re: Turbo for sale
No problem, I was the same, and its not easy to do the whole mot tax juggle. I think I'll just have to stick it through an mot and try to recoup any costs, hopefully there won't be much... I'll re-post when its road legal maybe you'll still be looking.

Re: Turbo for sale
Hi Jimbocrx, Yes it is, but less the DAB radio, just got a car here and the radio is broken so I plan to pick it up next time I'm back home (next week), there is quite a good CD/radio that came with it that I will put back and I might even have a spare original one in my box of extra bits, which wil...

Re: Turbo for sale

Re: Turbo for sale
Nope, I got it from a guy in Bolton he had had it for a couple of years, maybe its been through Glasgow at some point, I suspect a high percentage of UK 480's have been :D , it is my third and is a great example, really clean inside and out, worth a look, and there is loads of spare bits and bobs to...

Re: Turbo for sale
Cheers, got it, I think... Just a few of photos, I can try and get more later, I'll have to ask my brother to take some and send them to me, you will notice the different wing mirrors on the last two photos, I changed them to the older style ones just due to personal preference. http://i1375.photobu...

Turbo for sale
I put up a post for this car just over a year ago as I was moving to Austria, but it didn't go, I wasn't too bothered as I found it hard to part with. Anyway I have been here a year now and I think its a complete waste to leave it any longer, its in a dry garage just outside York (grandmas :D ) obvi...

Off to Austria the Turbo can't come with me.... can't it?
As the title suggests I'm relocating, this means I'll have to sell up, some time around the middle of Feb so just putting out some feelers. I have a 94 Turbo - grey half leather Clean rear arches (no rust no repairs) and bodywork in general good rear lights very clean inside 50,000 miles Robou ECU (...

Re: possible alternator issue
OK here's an update, I ran down to my local Volvo specialist who pulled a regulator off an alternator (don't know what from) and just gave it to me to try out (thanks P&R cars :D ), fitted it (after a little modification, had to drill out a bit of the mounting for the existing bolts to fit) and put ...

Re: possible alternator issue
Right; checked the charge bulb and wiring, all seemed ok the checks suggested that the circuitry was ok, so decided to go balls deep and remove the alternator, not such a big task actually, took of the regulator and the brushes do look quite warn, one (the outer one) much more so than the other, do ...

Re: possible alternator issue
Wow, thanks for all the advice, I will get started tomorrow and report back, should I test regardless of the light being on or take it out for a while until it comes on and check then, I'll probably do both, I don't think it's a problem with the bulb but I can change it anyway, would be worse if it ...

possible alternator issue
Hi all, My battery warning light is intermittently going on and off, having searched the sight (and from a past alternator failure on a holiday, great fun!) I predict that the alternator is on its way out, the other problem which would be nice is the wiring to the warning bulb, unfortunately I'm fin...

Re: Door panel clip required
Hummm maybe I'm going a bit mental, I'm sure I saw a thread in which someone found a clip from a different car (not sure if it was a citroen) and trimmed the round top into a rectangle so it would fit into the trim and it had a slightly larger plug end so it stuck tighter into the door card... Think...

Re: Door panel clip required
I seem to remember a thread in which someone used a clip from a citroen and cut the sides down, it had a larger plug side so fits into a hole that has been broadened, I'll have another search, I think it was in the unavailable spare parts section or somewhere.

Re: The Inevitable Terraclean Thread
Sounds good if no one has any horror stories about it I'm game, I don't see any prices on the website but as long as its not silly I'll give it a go.
