Got back to Germany yesterday and took her blanket off. Greeted by all the electrics disconnected and the radiator still on the floor. Obviously the fairys didn't do their job while I was away.

Took her for a spin after refitting the grille just to petrol station to put air in tyres and came to the decision that the 13 year old rear tyres need changing. 4 x Yokohama A539 175/50 R13.
Only one in the whole of Germany so will have to order from minispares and get someone to bring them over.
