Bravo My new Bravo :)

Well managed over 1000 miles in my first week of driving, 3 fillups too!

Heres a pic of the engine less the plastic from the top. Ignore the coolant level, that has been sorted


A bit more substantial than the 1.2 8v

Decided to update B&M to see if my iPod adaptor would work




It sorted it so onto the next thing.. finding the bulbs for the heating control panel which aren't working..


Managed to get to them and both were blown.. Will need to pop into wilco tomorrow..

anyone know if there was a cup holder as an optional extra below the stereo on the centre console part?

Also I got a under seat compartment but the handle is missing, anyone know the part number? or anything?

Got the lights replaced and all working, cost £1.58 for two at Wilco, I think working opposite Wilco's head office in leeds is gonna be bad on the bank account in the long run...




Upon trying to take out the radio i managed to break one of the clips... after a couple of hours of sawing, swearing and straining we managed to shatter the stuck clip :\

Stickers done

Anyone know of a proper guide on how to take the EGR Valve off or got any pictures?

Also my clutch is stupidly heavy, didn't realise it until i moved my dads car the other day and is as light as a feather in comparison! Garage said i need a new clutch, suggestions? Are they right?

hi there, how easy was changing the heater lights? as mine need done badly.
and i think these cars do have a heavy clutch, but not bad. i noticed it also moving my dads jap scrap out my drive, clutch light as a feather.

Hi, I just started taking stuff apart off my centre console. You can get it to a stage where you can reach in the back and pull the lights out. I don't think the actual unit can be removed without removing the entire dashboard!

I had the same wiper problem and Fiat wanted to charge for a whole new wiper instead of providing a replacement cap! Aye right!

Good looking car!
