Thanks to a thread on here I got in touch with Gordon Hunter (from this board) and I now have his car sitting my garage .

So now I am a proud black Tuscan S owner and its fantastic! And the speedo is fixed so I won't be breaking any speed limits, ahem.

Love it

Only question is - What does 'Diagnositcs warning L' mean?

There should be a docco circulating with all the codes explained (in brief!) - 'faid mine's at home but I'm sure someone will get you one this morning! (And I'm only a Chimaera owner . .)

I'm sure I'm going to regret parting with it but needs must. Never mind, as I know it has gone to a good home and I hope you have lots of fun with it. Pleasure doing business with you and thanks to everybody on this site for the knowledge and helpful attitude.

Cheers

Christine,

Forgot to mention.....might not be a bad idea to leave the battery on the conditioner for a night or so as the car had been in my garage for a month and then was in the dealers for a few weeks. Not much running around and those batts discharge pretty quickly if you do not use the car regularly. You know about the battery charging socket behind the nearside front wheel on the sill?

Cheers

Yep we found that. The battery had gone flat when it got delivered. Had to jump start it, but has charged up well by just driving it. We are used to all this with the Lotus as well....but we found out the hard way with that one.
