Well took the old man out for a quick drive last night and opened it up for the first time - im pleased with the performance however the Engine / Emmisions light is on this morning - im guessing it could be a result of giving it a boot and maybe some dodgie fuel being puched through!! I have drove it to work this morning (13miles) and it seems to drive fine.....Any thought?

Hi and welcome - great looking car. 
bobby_d, I like that. Congrats on going for something different too
not sure about the emissions light but a kind forum member posted my stubby to me as a welcome present. If you search my for my welcome post I think there are links in there to potential stubby supplier suggestions. I like the one I went for in the end but would be tempted to go shorter. FM reception is fine btw. not bothered about anything else.
Give us a wave if you see my blue coupe about (M1 DJD). I wont miss yours!

Popped down to a friends garage earlier n hooked it up to the diagnostics - nothing major as it was running fine so will see how it go's...
yeah will give you a wave...have seen a silver coupe around the chester area but not a blue yet. I was looking at the aerial tonight and it really would look better with a stubby - thats my morning at work tomorrow sorted, a bit of internet searching lol..
Looks like it is well equipped decided to purchase a stubby a few minutes ago from ebay....decided to get a bmw one,

The emmisions light was turned off last week by a freind but appears to have come on again over the weekend. The garage happend to ring today re my extended warranty paperwork so i mentioned to him about it and he suggested it might be from putting v-power in - i cant forsee why that would make a difference but have read a similar post on here. I will try a tank of normal unleaded and see what happens!
