I bought this car from @Dammit just over three years ago (see threads below), on the basis that he'd fixed "everything" on it already. It's been a pleasure to own, comfortable on the motorway, fast on the autobahn, flowing nicely down a country road and easy to manoeuvre in town. I've now got...

A week ago, driving home in the dark, I got a message on the dash saying my left headlight wasn't working. The message went away and the bulb did then light up, but looking at it from the front, I could see it was noticeable purpler than its right-hand counterpart. Clearly needing changing...

I'm a fan of quick RWD cars, currently have an RX-7 & 350Z. I suddenly realised it's a bit silly owning two impractical sports cars, so started looking to replace the Nissan with a small RWD estate with a big engine. Which naturally lead me to the back-catalogue of Herren Aufrecht und Melcher...
