Keeping the practicality but loosing none of the charm. The fofour was lovely to be fair and a good buy/find. But found the 999cc non turbo engine a little too slow for me. It a great car. The 900cc turbo engine is like the car has had a personality lift and is peppy.

    Nice video. A well known problem on the 453 Automatic. I have the 453 five speed manual box and although there is no electrical interlocking solenoid like the automatic, it does have a weird tie into the cars computer. What happens if you try a fast manual start, ie, a foot on the clutch, have the car in first gear and turn ignition on and go, BUT itdoes not go, the engine will not start, as the cars computer comes up with a warning and tells you to put the car in neutral before you can start the car LOL. I get caught out with the warning quite often by coming out of neutral at start too quickly. Never seen it in any other manual car, but that the problem with modern car, so many un-necessary tie-ins to the cars computer, Cheers Col.

    Fun fact: if you put the wrong wiper blade on the wrong side (i.e. they didn't sell the size you needed) it's possible that the plastic and metal fuse to become some sort of superpowered metal-plastic hybrid. Anyway after I ripped them apart with pliers I realized the inciting mistake had happened like four years ago 💀 sorry car. It did work though so I'm only kind of sorry.

      @@Sunny_a88 ok. I had the same issue when I made this exact video … I went around all the tyres and slightly over inflated… drove for a mile or so. Then reset and it was fixed. It could be that one of the tyre pressure sensors have failed and needs replacing. About £50 is from memory. Before you spend any money you could disconnect the battery for 5 mins. Then reconnect and reset again if still showing. Hope this helps. Thanks for the comment and interaction, if not done so. Plz consider subscribing as I am aiming for 10k subscribers by the end of next year… I have more co tent planned when the weather breaks. Changing rear brake shoes, replacing the brake fluid, lamp replacements. Thanks. Gareth
