    Passenger side light (Front) / Passenger Brake light (rear) not working

    Hi Guys, I've seen a few posts where this looks to be fuse related. But from what I can see, the other things that would stop working if the fuse had gone (numberplate lights, aircon etc.) are still working.

    Project Standard 182FF

    So i bought my 182FF around a year ago now, it's fulfilled all expectations it's my daily commuter and still makes me smile on country roads on a Sunday!

    The worst thing about seeing your old car

    So I sold my clio only a month ago and although I really do love my mx5, I still do miss my Clio quite a bit :), so to my delight I saw it as I sold it to someone not far away. That was until I saw the front end. So here it was in August ready for Cliosport Saturday. I put so much time money...

    What's this I've found?

    So I found this under the spare wheel in the car, its all in French. Is it some sort of production line thing its got an order number on and stuff? The cars nearly 15 years old now, it would be strange if this has survived all this time :)
