Still has a few niggles but mainly old age. The fuel pumps still buzzing so will change it sooner or later. Screen washer is tempermental and the horns are a bit of a whisper
Also managed to get valuation increased and reduce the insurance by £20. So now sub £200 for 4000 miles,agreed valuation of £7000, excess £50 free roadside recovery.

I took the lock out gave it a bit of a clean and noticed one pin was sitting a little high. Five minutes with a file and it's working as good as new.
Refit that lock and moved on to the passenger door lock as that didn't work either. A bit of wd40 in the key hole and bingo another working lock! Really pleased and I have a complete set just in case (or to sell on at some point!)

I changed the boot strut so now it stays open….. small fries i know.
It's the little details that make all the difference
