Sad but true, mine is the same.

Very pretty.

Looks neat.

Ah, I'd forgotten you were in NZ, in that case, although I hate to say it, maybe buy it back and break it? There must be other Morini owners in your neck of the globe who would be grateful? Also, as a wildcard thought, If the issues are going to be mainly electrical (and please accept I have no idea...
