Excellent stuff, cheers everyone for your input.
Been out to the car today, door opened with the key which was an unexpexted surprize, My mate was here as I know it would take 2 to open the bonnet, usual stretched cable problem which has now had some WD40 on the catcth/cable etc ready for when we get round to adjusting it next week.
Car hadnt been started since christmas, bless it's little heart it fired the first turn of the key with one of those jump/booster pack things.
Reset the windows and radio tuned it and checked all the windows etc. Sunroof was a bit iffy at first the I tried pushing the control knob in and turned all was fine there.
Only niggles were a locking solenoid working both directions on its own at power up before starting. Power hooked up, alarm went off, pressed the alarm fob to open doors and solenoid started making open/shut noise. Turned ignition on/off a couple of times it seemed fine.
Fronts pads were slightly stuck on, no issues there.
Car had advisories for corrosion on inner O/S front disk, thre wear and a front bush (I think) Car was parked up at christmas as the corrosion had taken one of the pads metal to metal ( my fault as all plans went tits up due to illness)
So now I dunno whether to just stick a set of pads in and make sure there is nothing else wrong with the car on a run. Or put the new pads and disk on now and get the bush or wishbones (cant quite remember the exact problems on the advisory)
Then either get new bushes/wishbones fitted and gett tracking done locally, Or get all the joints soaked and make a trip to wim and let Tony fit new suspention as requied and set the car up. (If I do that will be later in the year)
But basically chuffed to bits with the car.
