    I've just bought a 2004 Copen and love it.
    I'm thinking of changing the oil and filter straight away as I don't know when they were last changed.
    Any suggestions? People seem to be suggesting in other threads that it's a bit of a nightmare.

    Hi.... also from Kent.

    Good luck with the oil change, I've gone for the soft option and I'm getting my local garage to give my new car the once over and some much needed TLC.

    I'm sure you've get plenty of advice on here.

    I have a 1.3 so a bit easier! I think it is just a case of having small hands and using the right tools! Some people take the front bumper off to get easy access but others don't. I'm sure someone who has done it will give you some tips!

    I took the front bumper off my copen to do it, takes longer but I am 6ft 3 with big hands :D:D

    Welcome by the way:)
