My 1999 6N1

Featured Replies

Hi, thought it was time to post a couple of photo's of my car. I bought it recently from my sons friend and its in need of some TLC.

Bad points:-

Drivers door lock spinning. - fixed

Drivers door electric window temperamental.

Passenger door electric window open & closes 2".

Airbag light constantly on.

Back light on heater controls out.

Card & carpet missing from boot.

Exhaust manifold cracked.

Bolts from air box missing along with all the pipework.

Oil leaking from valve cover.

Ticks over @ 1100 revs.

Sloppy gear stick throw.

Poor brakes.

Suspension ride poor with wheels rubbing when pushing around corners.

Exhaust banging & clattering off bodywork.

Paint work needs tidying up and I'm puzzled why the near side wing and door appear to be a differant green to the rest of the car.

That is enough to keep my son and me busy in the near future, now for some pictures.

For all its faults I do love how the car looks and drives and it does bring a smile to my face. If any one knows any history on this would you please drop me a pm.

The passenger door bump strip was coming away so my son and I decided to take them all off. This is what she now looks like.

I love this colour of 6N, my first one was Cosmic Green! Most of the bad points are typical 6N things haha! The window regulators were never the never the most reliable thing on them, and with the airbag, if you're not that bothered about them actually working all I did in mine is bought a 3.3 ohm resistor and reset the light and hey presto!
