Spain 

First item
Remap....Bellautos remap is VERY popular on here.

One advertised on here in the for sale section.

Then clear or smoked side repeaters
Colour code
New door handles....check first as older models have a different type In Spain - 2018 F Pace - Frightened away from the Sports due to crank failures
Gone - A couple of RRS, A couple of Disco's. However thinking of another Sport.

Have it checked over by a good indy, to make sure the car needs nothing Thumbs Up

Seriously, a few hours for them to carry out a full healthcheck, and a diagnostic check will be money well spent if there is anything wrong (assuming you are buying it from a garage) as you will then be able to prove the faults were there at the time of buying the car.
If it were a private sale, you would not have the same comeback (from a legal point of view) but if it does need anything, you can prioritize any remedial work

Then it would be a remap Thumbs Up

Welcome, I had a 350Z, MR2 and a prelude in my past but wouldn't ever go back now. Wise choice but as already said get it checked out. Spud Smile
