Hello,
I'm Cyp from France, I had my Beta since 1998, it came from Switzerland (I live near Switzerland)
My english is not very good but I think to find some informations here
I bought to Mark, a set of lower springs and clear indicators, I'm going to put soon on it
I have a problem with the starter, I have changed the "contact" It worked only some months
I don't know if I need to change the starter or change the elecrical drawing with a relay, I will see



See you

Nice looking car Smiley
Looks quite aggresive with the number plate being low on the front valance.

Thank you!
Yes I fixed the plate here when I removed the bumpers!

When I put its again I found that the front was more graceful so I glued a rubber band on the bumper! Wink

As does the car to the right !

Welcome along BTW.

Some starter problems can be a poor earth connection. Try running a jump lead from the engine to the chassis or battery -ve and see if that makes it any better.

Thanks!
Yes I think it's a problem of connection, I'm going to try different think before changing the starter
I read that when an electric system is hot the connection are baddest than when the system is cold
It's true for me, no problem to start a first time but after...
Sometime I hit the starter ant it works again...

Very nice looking Coupe, Grin

I think the car looks very striking in white, and without the bumper too.

Hi Daniele
Yes it's a bianco 224 Max Meyer, you too?
For the fixing, quite easy:

It's Sev Marchal, It was better if it was Carello! But it's not plugged, it's just for the look!!!!
See you!

I put a "stopper" between the light and the bumper too

My battery is already low so I have a little afraid to plug them!
