MickyRoche Unregistered M	Hello chaps! I Became the proud owner of my first coupe today! Just after some advice on if you can go to get a full check over of the car and get advisories on what needs changing, or expect to change within the next 6 months etc I here people rave on about motor mech in brum and joes countycruising however not sure if he modifies more rather than fix...if that makes sense. thanks Mick

Gamu Unregistered G	Welcome mate Obviously costs differ between who does them, but you can see Motormech's price list here which should give you an idea. Note the bit at the bottom about discounts for club members Gareth

MickyRoche Unregistered M	Hi All thanks for the welcome! And cheers Gamu for the price list! Sorry to be a pain but i am not sure if there is already a post out there and this needs to be in a different catergory? but the remote for the alarm is missing the rubber button to activate it and have to use something sharp and pointy to fit to push the button....has anyone thought of any genius DIY remedies for this to be fixed or would i need to pay for a new fob? plus ny idea on costs? many thanks again!!

I used a 10mm drill to drill out the 3 slots and used a button from an old sky remote to replace the old button. Works a treat

proccy Unregistered P	welcome matey, just the right distance for the respective coupé specialists, don't discount using rog at poweritalia either, they are possibly the 3 most respected guys working on the car currently that i know of... get to some mids meets, join the club, enjoy good discounts cuz you'll need em...
