Failing direction indicator + Kc 2.4 badges

It has been a while. It's still my daily driver and all is fine. Except that very often the right direction indicator is intermittenly failing. So today I swapped the relais around from another kappa. And on my home I did not had this is issue anymore. But perpahs its to early to make this conclusion ...

And today I also took the effort to get all Kappa's outside and sweep the garage.

Well, meanwhile I also obtained the original badges for the front wing of my Kappa Coupe. So I took the effort to put them on both sides:

Lancia Kappa SW - Atomium

Today I made my first international roadtrip :-)   All the way to Brussels to visit Interclassics. So a nice opportunity to make a photo with a landmark. 

A very pleasant drive, except for all the roadworks around Brussels. 

RDW voertuigenrapport

Today I obtained a status report of my vehicle provided freely by the official Ducth road registration company (RDW). Nice to have this extra piece of history available. It shows the mileage is legitimate and the amount of previous owners, and some more minor details.

Autumn photo at the restaurant

It was a lovely autumn afternoon. So after the car wash I drove to a nearby historic village and made this photo. Typical how the rear wheel shows in a wrong angle on this photo, must be something silly with the phone camera.  

Dent repair

 A few weeks ago I received an invite from our insureance company to get free dent repair, max 3 dents with the max size of a 2 euro coin. I had been to such event before a few years back. I thought this was a nice opportunity to bring the Kappa SW since it has lots of small dents. 

I had the earliest timeslot booked so I was present almost first in line. Again this event is so well organized. Hats of to the insureance company Centraal Beheer / Achmea. 

I was welcomed with a free coffee, and a choice of some snacks.

I had a nice chat with the specialist and selected 3 dents to work upon. He liked my car very much, it turned out he was a liker of Italian cars and had once a Alfa 33 which he regretted to have sold. Then another guy showed up and he too liked my car very much and said it's a very rare car. Typical. So then the specialist mentioned the Lancia with the Ferrari engine. So I confessed I was a owner of that car as well, funny. Time to start the job:

I forgot to make a photo beforehand of the two dents in the left frontwing. It was fixed so quickly with a pry bar and a hammer

Then to the other side for another large dent:

And this was also fixed within 5 minutes

So after 15 minutes I could leave already. On my way out I was provided with a small bag of candy. The famous Dutch autodrop. 

Taillight failure

 Today this failure popped up:

So that was an easy fix, only one side was broken but I replaced both. The lightbulbs that came out were 5W, which is correct according to the manuel. They lightbulbs I purchased were however 10W

All bright again:

Lancia Kappa Dutch advertisement

 I found this Dutch advertisement in my archive, with a green SW just as mine :-)
