0 MikeyRules Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 Oii wots wrong with White Non-Italian! Haha I was just checking that you were still reading all the posts lol! If its a LTD then its a 2.0Good point Spud! I hadn't seen the thread title, so missed that bit... Here's the car in question... It's a grade 3 car, so a good few dents, scratches and chips, plus new fog light and two wheel centre caps required. There's no mechanical report, so difficult to know if there's any other issues other than from the MOT history. MOT'd until Sept 2020, where it states on the advisories that new front tyres are required soon, as are new front discs and pads, plus worryingly some play in the steering rack!

0 Andrewgrale Posted October 11, 2019 Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 (edited) Oooohh headlight washers - does that mean it has the fancy turning light thingys?How technical :-DThey're actually called gizmos!!!I think if cars have xenon lights and poly-eliptical light lenses, they're required by European law to have a means to wash the lights, so it might not mean that this car has the 'see around corner lights'??? (Look at the technical terminology I use!!!) :-D Edited October 11, 2019 by Andrewgrale Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ForzaLancia Posted October 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 did not have a look, was too busy with my car failing the MOT lol, both front dampers gone apparently, different part no to the Bravo too. £135 for the two from Eurocarparts after two hours of searching, cross referencing and faffing. Will take less time to fit them. Oh well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 ForzaLancia Posted October 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 11, 2019 the Measham Delta has different pics to those I first saw, it has front parking sensors too. 4 owners though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 MikeyRules Posted October 13, 2019 Report Share Posted October 13, 2019 I'm surprised it's not on a 'buy it now' over the weekend? That's what usually happens when they don't sell at the block. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DeltaFan Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 I am new in this forum and I have just read this thread. I bought this car from a dealer in Sheffield at the beginning of November. I guess they bought it at BCA at this point.. I did not know it! Before collecting it, the car dealer installed new front discs and pads and they bought the two wheel centre caps that were missing (they did not substitute front tyres though..) [..] plus worryingly some play in the steering rack! I have been driving the car for about 2000 miles and I have not noticed any problems so far, it drives very well actually and it is so comfortable. I am wondering if "some play in the steering rack" (that I did not notice) could lead in the future to some well known problems? Which ones? Thank you.

0 MikeyRules Posted December 5, 2019 Report Share Posted December 5, 2019 Welcome Deltafan, and congrats on a great spec car too! Just check yourself for any play in the steering. Whilst stationery and with the engine idling and wheels straight, see how far each way you can turn the wheel before the wheels move. I'm also pretty sure you'd have noticed by now to be fair... If you're worried get a mechanic to give it a quick check over. Where abouts are you? We might be able to suggest a good specialist! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DeltaFan Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 (edited) I'm also pretty sure you'd have noticed by now to be fair...Honestly I have not noticed any strange behavior in the steering, it works very well in both standard and "City" modes. Maybe they fixed the issue without telling me..;-) Where abouts are you? We might be able to suggest a good specialist! Cambridgeshire and Norfolk (I am on the border). If anyone suggests a good specialist in these areas, it could be useful in the future.. :-) Edited December 6, 2019 by DeltaFan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 DeltaFan Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Oooohh headlight washers - does that mean it has the fancy turning light thingys?Yes, it has turning lights and a button to disable turning. Regarding headlight washers, I have still to see them working. Manual does not mention anything about them.. I will try to activate windscreen washers with headlights on to see if headlight washers work.. Nello 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want page 382 - if dipped beams are on, pulling stalk towards steering wheel will activate screen and headlamp washers Edited December 6, 2019 by alfaspud Nello 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Question
