bye bye barchetta hello GTV6

[pooh]

After 2.5 years of totally reliable and hugely enjoyable driving, I have traded in my barchetta for a 2001 silver with red interior GTV V6. My wife would not drive the barchetta because of the lhd and the back seats in the GTV will be handy for the kids. First impressions of the gtv are mainly of the holy shit this thing is quick sort but I do have my first problem, the passenger side brake light is not working and the indicators on the same side all flash but twice as fast as normal, the bulb appears to be OK, any suggestions?
Thanks
Robert.

Ive sorted it, the bulb was not in correctly for the brake light and when the dealer tried to sort it he put the indicator bulb in wrong .
Still its sorted now so I'm off for a

If you want a stainless exhaust then try [url]www.haywardandscott.co.uk[/url]. They did mine 156 V6 2.5 and it sounds fantastic.

Cheers Guys
I have already joined sportsalfa and a sports exhaust is most definitely on the list of things to do, pics will follow if it stops raining.

That's gorgeous! Only fault I can find is the spoiler which doesn't fit in with the look of the car. It's part of an "aero pack" though I believe.

I don't have strong feelings for the spoiler either way but overall I am more than happy with the way it looks and drives.

pah rubbish. the aero pack adds a bit of depth to the car (although yours is missing the splitter)
awesome car

Very nice.

The spoiler is marmite - people generally love them or hate them. Personally I like it.

Always liked the spoiler aswell, wish I'd got one on my GTV.

Nice car BTW!
