Hi everyone

?

I have been lurking around on here for a while now as I am looking to buy an Octy Mk1 Vrs on an 03 plate. There are a couple of things that bother me with it though. Firstly the stone chips on the bonnet...there are a lot of them! It's on 90,000mls and I know this is genuine...just seems like a lot of chips, do these chip easily and has anyone had a bonnet resprayed and roughly how much did it cost? Secondly the 2 radiator fans are on constantly from when the car starts up? Is this the temp sensor on the radiator playing up or am I looking at another problem. Thirdly there are a number of scratches on the wing mirror (red car) and the front bumber. Has anyone tried respraying the colour coded bumbers and what kind of success did you have?

Everything else seems fine with the exception of the cold start idling problem that I was expecting and after reading similar problems on here, I should be able to deal with this myself :-) The sump guard has snapped off recently so this will need replacing too....not a big deal though.

Guys and Girls any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

very many thanks
