Obviously it had to be something a bit different
Update - completed so far:
- Greased the window rubbers (still very noisy AF when it's hot so any suggestions are welcome - I think the next plan is to try and clean all of the contact points.
- Updated the blue and me (not the greatest system in the world and isn't a fan of taking any CD's most of the time)
- OEM red text MiTo mats fitted
- Missing parcel shelf replaced
- Glovebox rattle fixed (latch adjusted and now OK) - classic Alfa
- Steering wheel buttons fixed (contact cleaner)
- Glued the loose grille strake back in place
- Undertray fixings replaced (loads missing and it was pretty much on the floor)
- Grille and tailgate badges replaced for the facelift MiTo ones
- Oil separator leak fixed (O-ring replaced)
- 'Alfa Romeo' puddle lights fitted
- Full service completed - Oil, oil filter, MultiAir filter, cabin filter, spark plugs, aux belt, timing belt, water pump and coolant
- K&N induction kit fitted
- Osram 'cool blue' headlight bulbs fitted along with xenon DRL's for a bit more of a modern look
- Trim restorer used on the number plate plinth
- Chrome wheel nut covers fitted
- Headlights restored
- Pumped up the space saver (wouldn't be much good at 15 psi lol)
Current to do:
- Sort the wastegate rattle (pre-load needs adjusting)
- Sort blower motor issue (blower stops at 100% load and cuts out when going over bumps)
- Paint touch ups (and sort some of the dodgy old ones out)
- Fit the blue and me Bluetooth adapter to allow music to be played via Bluetooth
- Restoration/clean of the front seats (bolster wear)
- Restore/replace the window switches
- Replace the OS taillight - (dead LEDs)
- Polish the exhaust
- Alarm unavailable message - multiecuscan pointing towards a siren failure
- Metal pedal covers and footrest to be found (the search continues)
- Lacquer peel to sort on the rear spoiler - ordered a good second hand one but I've been ghosted
- Squeaky steering (guessing this is a dry joint somewhere)
- New tyres fitted (never experienced anything quite as bad as 'Boto Vantage H-8's' - Pirelli P-Zeros on order - good price from my local Pirelli performance centre + £70 fuel card from the AROC)
- Tuning (handling/engine - to be thought about once I have some half decent tyres on the car).
