Default Wanted to introduce myself

Not sure if this is the correct place to do this but as a new member I just wanted to say hi to you all. I have just purchased my Rover and I have to say I am very pleased with it apart from a couple of what I am hoping are minor problems which didnt show up on the test drive, I guess time will tell.
Just tried to post a picture of my car but cant seem to figure out how to, yes thats right i am not the most computer literate person.
Well i hope to get to know you all and hopefully make a contribution to the club in some small way.

Thanks for the welcome
The car is MG ZT CDTi 2.0 131bhp
I have 2 problems which both developed less than 2 days after purchase.
The first one is the air bag light came on for a short while, went off but now has come back on and stays on.
The second is the engine management light sometimes flickers on when on low revs for a few minutes after startup but the car still runs lovely.
Looks like i will have to get a diagnostic test run on her.

Air bag light is normally the connect under the drivers seat, have a search for the how to,
The management light came on on mine, it turned out to be, at at the front of the fuel filter there are two plugs, the one on the right as you look at it, the wire was pulled tight, gently pull the wire so there is a little bit of slack, I have never had the problem again.....and it's free to try....

Hi Richy the engine management light can be caused by the under bonnet fuel filter being loose in it's housing this causes the light to come on intermittently.
