Couple of little niggles

Well I've got her home, was a bit of a mission! No problems with the car, just with the traffic!

Anyway couple of little bits here and there need addressing.

There is a repetitive clicking sound coming from behind the dash which seems to stop when you press the front screen button on the climate control area.

Also its got a bit of a scrape on the passenger side which I have a mate who can fix but it needs a new bit of trim that starts at the end of the sideskirt and goes over the wheel arch.

Few other bits like needs new badges, saggy rear bumper but I was looking at the mechanical history as I have a receipt here for £1650 for all belts, new inlet mani, gaskets, water pump, idler, thermostat, ect.. and also end of last year new master and slave cylinder.

The clicking could be the motor that drives the flaps that direct the flow, I have no idea why it would click though
