Haven't had much time on the car recently, but still planning on taking up to MoT next week. Washer wipes sorted. Still have an issue with the full beam headlights. Appears to be switch related as pushing the stalk forward solves the problem. Does the steering wheel need to come off to get to the headlight / indicator stalk switch?

Other issues are perhaps as expected, no working speedo (although fuel range appears ok), passenger window stuck, cabin blower only working on max speed, door micros switches not functioning. Somewhat ironically, every function of the over the top 80's hi fi system is fully functioning, even the cassette deck and remote!

Been a bit quiet on the GTA front. Delivered her to my local MoT station last week and apparently, by the end of this week, with a few small jobs, she will have a ticket on her! Will start a new thread as soon as I get to drive her properly. Looking forward to some testing time including a couple of evenings at Brands Hatch and Snetterton to help me decide her future....... wish me luck.....

A BIG THANK YOU to all of you who helped me get her running again..... I'm sure this is only the beginning of a slippery, slippery slope! :Cheer
