Hi,

As regard to the washer. Sounds like rubbish in the bottom of the
rear washer bottle has gradually built up over time and is now
clogging up the pipes. Continue flushing after you've made sure the
bottle is clean.

Probably a replacement rear bumper if you can get another one the
same colour. I recently had my Alfa 156 front bumper plastic welded
(not kidding) and resprayed (£80) by a local bodyshop.

Metallic paint and DIY don't really work, I suggest getting quotes
for the work.

Try using Parkers.co.uk or buying one of their books for the value
of the car. Price up the work before you get it done and see if it's
worth doing.

Ian (306 1.6i LX Estate).
