My mom is having building work done, and access is via the garage, so the scirocco is back outside. Achieving this means:

a) Getting it started, after >6 months of not being started.
b) Moved around the steep drive with practically useless brakes.

Unbelievably, it started first time, and ran really well. The 1984 1.8 petrol engine runs and ticks over sweetly. i won’t mention the gaping holes in the body though…
