Welcome back btw.

Thanks

Alfa Romeo Mito 1.4... With repair bills total of £4,000 in that short time.

Welcome to ClioSport, Dee1983

Thank you

 

[Bluebeard]

Ouch.

Where did you buy your EDC clio from, City Motors?

 

[Dee1983]

Ouch indeed

Yeah I did, due to collect before 31st March as vehicle is already with them as need to sort one more repair out on the mito as got a SRS light on the dash.

 

[Bluebeard]

Which salesman?

 

[Dee1983]

Nick Rixton

Mito going out in style lol

 

[Bluebeard]

Ahh, I went on a load of training courses with Nick.

He works for a WRC team too. Always jetting about places.

 

[Dee1983]

Been very helpful to me and to get out the awful car

 

[Bluebeard]

Don't mention my name down there ffs. You'll set the alarms off and be escorted off the premesis! lol.

Sadly though, with alfas, you either get very good ones (although rare) or really shockingly bad ones. I remember looking at an ebay ad for a lovely 2.5V6 156 and the guy had owned it 7 years and EXCLUDING the cost of the car, spent £27,000 on it!! Madness! I think it sold for about £1700.

 

[Dee1983]

No worries I won't.

Think I had a very bad Alfa, just want pick up the Clio but need to get the heap of junk fixed first grrrrrrrr

 

[Bluebeard]

I know a very good auto electrician that can sort it for £25? ;-)

A Bristolian - hello!

 

[karol_SVK]

welcome, i did not read a owners review of GT 120 EDC (not much reviews in total, all are just after RS), so i hope you write some lines after a month of ownership

 

[Dee1983]

Thanks all for your welcome. Due to collect her on 29th March and can't wait

 

[Dee1983]

Going to get the Mito back from my mate tomorrow, not looking forward to getting it back. SRS light now off.

Only 8 days left to wait
