Good starting

After 2 months after doing the pump/belts etc, i put a battery onto the car.

I know it started with no problems at the time, and decided to see how well she'd start yesterday, after being stood for 2 months, without turning a wheel.

She started first turn of the key, no fuel priming or anything. So really chuffed

Just waiting to get her sorted out for the MOT now, probably wont be till early Jan i think.

It's been a long few months, but at least i can see light at the end of the tunnel now. Wish finances weren't so crap, i would have got the car on the road much sooner.

Roll on the new year.

Cheers
Dave

good to hear dude. After having my beemer for about a month I thought I'd turn my 200 over to see how well she's start.

Wouldn't even turn over! turn the key and nothing. damn shame.

Oh well. Glad to hear yours is nearly back on the road

cheers
Ben
