Well, wasn't expecting that to happen.

Put the MK1 away in the garage last September and not touched it since save for screwing the original dealer number plates back on now the personal registration has gone onto another car.

Having put the battery on charge for a few hours a month or so ago I thought I would check to see if it was still holding charge or needed a new one, so I connected it up and turned in the ignition expecting the engine not even to turn over, but amazingly the thing instantly fired into life, It took me quite by surprise , I hadn’t even cleared all the bits and pieces from around the car or even pumped the tyres up but five minutes later it was out in daylight.

Roll on the spring & summer.

Now my Audi TT despite being 20 yrs  younger can hardly be bothered to start if I have left it for more than a couple of weeks.
