looks nice, not my usual taste in wheels but they suit it more than they should. i have just stripped a grey interior out of mine if your interested pm me.

also sounds like seized wiper mechanism. bit of freeing and greasing should solve that, i learnt the hard way after killing a new wiper motor.

Yes.....Check the wiper arm bushes and spindles as they come up through the body.....they sieze up and the motor blows it's fuse.
