Nice one mate. the price is really good but before you do anything else I would advise you to replace all fluids and inspect hoses. 5 Years seated in a garage is plenty of time to let rubber develop cracks |

Hi & welcome to the forum . Firstly check for cracks in all the tyres , they will be on the tyre walls and go around the tyre , then check ALL the other rubber bits.... ie topmounts , arb bushes , and all the suspension bushes . Give the cooling system a really good flush , and refill . If any of the electrics don't work , don't panic , as they can start working again if you try to use them frequently , for example the window switches need using a few times if it doesn't work at first , or it could just mean a change of fuse . Enjoy ! Jeremy Edited by jeremy, Sat Jan 8, 2011 11:27 am.
