Croma 2.2 Prestigio only 29k miles
i dont see engine light i only see triangle, that can be simple thing like windows need winding all the way down pause wind back up pause.
still too much money for a 2.2 though

Does that light come on just because the Right Front Door is open (as displayed)..? I don't know whether it comes on for something so trivial. Either that or the EGR valve is blocked, the DPF is stuffed full and the gearbox has melted.
Nice though, but too expensive as Dave says.
I don't understand Croma wheels though. Mine's a 56-reg Prestigio (but a 1.9D manual) and it has totally different wheels. Was there a facelift during 56-reg?

Different option, normally a choice of about 4 different types in options brochure from previous experience.
On mine that triangle is the "check engine" light,and and yes it could be something trivial as I said.If it is the windows, how long does that take to sort out?10 - 15 seconds?Why try to sell a motor on ebay with warning lights on?I ask myself. 
Stupid question time, could the light be on as the engine hasn't been started ?
Perhaps as key has just been turned on ?

revs are not at zero
the engine warning light is engine shapped, this is the generic failure light.

it can be any thing from a oil presure sensor to an under inflated tyre, should get a message on dash to say why its on.

Re the wheels: These were one of 2 18" designs that FIAT fitted to the Prestigio's as standard.
I have seen several Prestigio's with these fitted - including the original car FIAT UK used for their press photos
At launch, for non-prestigios these 18" 9-spokes were listed as a £300 option.

The yellow triangle has nothing to do with the door being open,if thats what you mean Doofer.The red door symbol tells you door is open.The triangle is a warning light as Dave's handbook says,all I'm saying is why not sort out any problem if it's trivial if you're selling a car?Gives any potential buyer leverage against you when haggling even if they know there's nothing much wrong.

Following on from Daves post, the handbook notes that the triangle in question for the petrol engine version could infer:
- Fuel Cut-off switched on
- Rain Sensor failure
- Parking Sensor failure
- Twilight Sensor failure
- Generic Failure (handbook describes this as "engine oil pressure sensor is faulty")
- Check Tyre Pressure
- Flat Tyres
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System failure
Shame we can't send someone around to check it out - we could run a book on which one it is
- Fuel Cut-off switched on
- Rain Sensor failure
- Parking Sensor failure
- Twilight Sensor failure
- Generic Failure (handbook describes this as "engine oil pressure sensor is faulty")
- Check Tyre Pressure
- Flat Tyres
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System failure

My money is on the Parking Sensor Failure!!Following on from Daves post, the handbook notes that the triangle in question for the petrol engine version could infer:

Ok
- Fuel Cut-off switched on 100/1
- Rain Sensor failure 20/1
- Parking Sensor failure Evens
- Twilight Sensor failure 20/1
- Generic Failure (handbook describes this as "engine oil pressure sensor is faulty") 20/1
- Check Tyre Pressure 20/1
- Flat Tyres 50/1
- Tyre Pressure Monitoring System failure 20/1
- Fuel Cut-off switched on 100/1
- Rain Sensor failure 20/1
- Parking Sensor failure Evens
- Twilight Sensor failure 20/1
- Generic Failure (handbook describes this as "engine oil pressure sensor is faulty") 20/1

Ah yes - I did try opening my door today and it didn't appear.
Almost all those errors sound expensive. Except the flat tyre - I didn't know Cromas even had an option for this feature, so it won't be that one.
I always assume that if something is sold with an error (or "untested") then the seller knows exactly what's wrong with it, it's knackered and that's why they're trying to dump the problem on someone else. Am I too cynical?
