Hi all,just been reading my P6 news and was looking at the article for the rally at Tal-y-llyn.I know it's a while away yet but was anyone thinking of going?Was going to make a day of it,nice drive over and near the beach for the kids to!

Had a crack at it today,decided to just swap the motor from me scrap car in the end.Not to bad to do,take the wipers off,take the air valance off then whip the motor out.Put the other one in and its working fine.

Mines a '71 2000 SC.Will have a go at the weekend.Coming home tonight it did switch off by itself,not as soon as i switched it off but a few minutes later so hopefully its like you think and just the contacts need a clean.

Thanks for that Dave,do i take the whole wiper motor out?Is that a pig of job or not to bad?

Hi everyone, I'm having a bit of trouble with me wipers at the mo.They switch on to slow and will also go on to fast but the bloomin things won't switch off!Thought it might be the switch itself so took one off my scrap car and no change,also changed the bit under the bonnet,don't know what its...

Hi all,you may have read about my problems in 'struggling for power' and i'm toying with the idea of swapping engines. There's one on Ebay at the moment that i'm bidding on (was up for a pound so got in touch with the guy and he said he'd do it for £100,thought i'd chance it on the auction and...

My hands are up,i really don't know what to do. Idling speed is a bit up and down,sometimes to fast other times needs a rev to stop it cutting out.Bloke who looked at it is usually pretty keyed up and has a lot to do with Fiat x-19's but by his own admission the P6 is something he's not worked...
