    Ghibli V6 S buyers guide?

    I found the tube to plug headlamp washer leaks. It’s accessible without taking the wheel and liner off. Simply open the bonnet, pull away the rubber cover at the top of the wing and you will see this pipe (I’ve split it so you can see the two white connectors... (Undo the blue clip) plug it there.

    Ghibli V6 S buyers guide?

    Do you know where on the line to plug it, and how to get to it? Mine has a leak. I took the washer fuse out thinking it'd stop the water pumping to those lines, but that didn't work. any guidance would be most appreciated. I don't need headlamp washers (in fact, I don't like how they leave...

    Milestone passed

    My 410S is heading to 50k too. I’m heading to Imola on a road trip from the UK this week, following a trip to Croatia a few months ago. Agree on winter tyres. There’s a few people getting rid of 18in or 19in rims on eBay. I bought a set and put winters on. Better than an xdrive or Quattro on...

    A 2500mile, pan-European road test in my Ghibli S

    Despite the fact that Easyjet or Ryanair can take you anywhere in Europe for the price of a half a Ghibli tankful, I believe the flyer misses out on the journey….which is often as interesting as the destination. Or in the case of a great roadtrip, many destinations. In the last ten years, our...

    Screen Wash Habit

    Glad it's fixed. I have exactly the same issue now, but I'm out of warranty :( I'm reluctant to buy a whole washer unit as does work (well, splurts water all over the front of the car in a fashion) . Do you know if it was just the pipe that was broken?....if so, I'll poke around under the...
