Hello and welcome nice to see a new face.

[D]

Thank you.
Expect I'll be posting a few queries and questions to make sure my Wind is being looked after properly

Welcome to the forum.

I think that all of the cars are now out of warranty, so I'm guessing a lot more DIY fixes will be documented on here in the future.

[D]

Yes I was fortunate to have ball joints replaced under warranty, otherwise been lucky so far but a service and MOT due in a few months so will see what that brings.
Already looking at option to repair or replace wheels as have kerb damage

[Araf]

The problem with the wheels is that they are wider than the tyres, so will always touch the kerb first. I switched to 15" wheels to stop this. The old Dynamique used to have 16" wheels, but the 17" on all other models are terrible - especially as they are diamond cut and lacquered.

[D]

I have the 17" and got a quote of £75 per wheel for repair, assuming they weren't badly damaged. However considering option to change them to 15" would be cheaper in long run

[Barbs]

I got mine done at £35 per wheel but the lacquered finish is lifting off so will have to have them done again but not much in the way of kerb damage this time.

Having paid to fully refeb my other halfs wheels I was less than popular when I touched curb with alloy the other day and now need to,breakout my dremel and autosol followed by clear coat to fix the new scrapes!

You could always paint them all black.

[Barbs]

Thought about painting the blue .

@Darrenj what part of the Uk or for that matter if abroad, where are we likely to spot you?

[D]

I like the thought of having a graphite colour

I used to be London on border with Kent but now Hampshire

[Barbs]

A bit far for you to make a mini Wind meet in Kent week after next then lol

[D]

Well Kent isn't that far and gives the Wind a good run, however I'm not free next weekend

[Barbs]

Typical.... Lol
