the end of the story for those of you that might be wondering: took the car to the stealer for the appointment made, returned it to me in the evening with "can't find the cause".

RE: Red one anyone?

oh, look, there's a red one. So you can have them in blue, yellow or red. Cute, like smarties.
Anyway, thanks Conti for the pics. Looking forward to seeing it in the flesh.
