Hi Guys

took the car out sat morning and this morning , got out of london early and hit the A3 . Just slowly getting to know the car , i really like it . This is just a standard 3R , I can't imagine what it would be like with more power ....bly me !!!

Does the blower just do cool and very warm ?

Thanks

Stefano

Yes as Bondy says, unless you want major aggrovation, you're better off just living with it.

Hi Stefano , good that you are having fun :-) start with the temp control on cold then only move to hot in vary small increments and only move a small amount from cold ,the valves can get abit stiff ,don,t force it but you could try working it abit to ease the valve ,mine has improved alot through use !! the cable operation can be a bit slack ,if i want heat i generaly let the engine get up to temp turn the valve to full on for a couple of mins turn it all the way to cold . gives a nice temp for a good while .

Hi Simon

yeah it was my second and third drive after i bought it, got up at 5.45 am to get it out of london before the traffic . I was taking it really easy and just doing the odd blip when i was in a straight line. This is my first proper sports car so it's all really new to me but i must admit i am glad i went for it. Sunday was a better drive coz the roads were drier with sunshine and i had driven it the day before .
I will try the heater like you said but it's not a problem at all .
Thanks
stefano
