Hi all
I finally took the plunge and bought a 2005 QP today after too many years of German cars - this one is black with black leather and red stitching. Looks great and I will post a couple of pics tomorrow.
Firstly, what a machine to drive...beautiful!
It did have a few gremlins on an extended drive to Poole today and with having zero mechanical knowledge and wanting to get things into shape, I was wondering if there is a good specialist around Weymouth, or at least in Dorset. A quick check online only showed one in Poole (Emblem) but any recommendations gratefully received!
Out of interest, the following errors showed up today...n/s dipped beam xenon out, parking sensor warning light (they seem to work ok?), electric mirror switch only works on o/side mirror. Most worrying is that twice the car went into neutral and cut out when I stopped at lights - I am hoping this is an electrical gremlin as apart from that the gearbox is smooth as.
I don't want these to ruin our enjoyment of this fine machine, so I thinks it's best to spend a few pounds and get them sorted once and for all, ideally without breaking the bank!
Hope you can help and thanks for reading this!
