Hi All,
Let me introduce myself, I'm a new keeper of a Barchetta, owned by my wife...fortunately she prefers me driving when we're in it together!
I got it from eBay the other week, 50-odd k mileage, good condition bodywork, RED, otherwise standard but with comfort pack (great leather seats). However the airbag light is on all the time, and I expect the MOT will require that to be fixed. The car is 1996 so I think they past their 'explode by' date, which is probably the reason for the light. Has anybody replaced their own? Has anybody discovered a way toread the error lights from the On-Board Diagnostics?
Is there anything to watch for when driving these cars? There seem to be a largish number of crashed ones around given the few you see on the road! Lovely car though and great to drive.
Cheers,
Alan
