Hi folks, been advised to post here as you folks are used to bringing cars back to life!
I've been to visit a friend whose car hasn't moved for 20 months apart from being rolled out of the garage and back again - cos it had a flat battery. She is unlikely to drive for another 6 months or so because of illness but wants to keep the car for when recovery makes driving possible again. New battery or recharge is obviously needed, tyres need checking . . . anything else apart from oil change required please folks? Its a 1 litre, 1998. Pug
106 BTW. Not sure about TAX situation but will check it when i next visit. Ideas collected so far inc: MOT, TAX etc. Plus brakes needing stripping down, cleaning and regreasing. Condition of front disks. Clutch may have seized onto the flywheel. Put some fresh petrol in. Pull the spark plugs to make sure they've not gone rusty. Brake fluid. Condition of tyres - flat spots or pressure. On the other hand one gent said that if stored in a dry garage it'll probable be alright with a decent battery.Any ideas appreciated pls folks.
