Funny story: I ran into a previous coworker and he mentioned liking it as well. He had a Bravo with which this shares an, albeit extended, platform. I also started a review on autoweek. I intend to be honest.

Oh, trust me... seeing as she's a head-turner (I swear some guy stared at it as I was parking) she will be hard to miss. And I'm sure you (and some coworkers) will see her, since you can somewhat triangulate where she's parked.

Some parcels arrived today, some will arrive in a few days. The job of making this car more suited to my needs is about to begin. Happy as a kid on Christmas morning.

I think it’s one of the “designs” of Leepu 😂

Also still to do is a OBD diagnostic. But when I replace the head unit, I have to do a proxy allignment, so kill two birds with one stone.

Also, I don't know when the cabin filter was last done. Other than that, she's fully serviced. I'll also have to clean the interior plastics. Updates to follow.

Things still to fix:
- Installation of after market headunit to support carplay DAB+ and Reverse Camera (did I mention this thing is huge?)
- Updating cornering lights to bright white
- Fix the door to the glove compartment, as it's currently opening far too wide.

On the plus side, everything works, she's pretty nippy, controls feel secure (although shifting feels diifferent and I have to get used to the position of Reverse Gear and operating the column stalks.

Just finished a job, updating the headlights to bright whites. It was definitely more of a job than it should've been. Modern design, while pretty, makes lights very inaccessible (at least, on the Italian cars I tend to buy). Definitely don't want to do this job when it's dark out.

Aside from rust, I’ve never had any issues with Italian cars, to be honest. It seems the gremlins of yesteryear aren’t really an issue anymore. 😊

To all republicans: If you were willing to get your knickers in a twist over Michelle Obama planting a vegetable garden, perhaps NOW's the time to get the pitch-forks? Your president clearly does not care about you. When will you say "enough is enough"?

I'm all for Automated Parking. I find parking tedious. It's the end of an activity I love doing: driving. But to have a computer do the journey for you? Naw... hard pass.

Yes, cars should be VERY safe, obviously. But if you need Autonomous Driving, you should just have your license revoked. Because you trust a computer with your life. And you depend on its features to protect you.

I’m finally doing the garden the way I planned on doing a couple years ago. It’s still a lot of work, but I’m done putting it off. Good luck on finding your dream home. Shame we’ll be less neighborly tho. But don’t be a stranger and DM.

I’m doing great! I’ve finally started a big project on my house and garden and it’s beginning to take shape. Hope you’re doing great as well!

Still here, just less active. This exhaust does sound a bit off. Sounds like there’s a blow in it… but it’s a very nice spot overall👍

Bleak, but you can only screw over so many... And there are a lot of enemies... That's why he's frightened about losing power... He sees it as a get out of jail free card. And boy... does he need one!
