Both sun visors are hanging right down and getting in the way, so I have ordered two replacement clips off eBay to sort that out.
Hope to get the car back before the weekend so we can get stuck into tidying it up!

Had a wee look if there were any 924's featured in pop culture or on Tv that you could model the car our your costumes on. The only thing I could come up with is Lucy Ewing drove one in Dallas, I don't know if Woodcutter would suit a blonde wig

Fuel drained, fresh fuel added, replacement relay fitted today and it fired into life straight away!
Sounds a little tappety, but I expect that's from sitting up for so long. Let it run for a while and the noise gradually reduced and it sounded much better after 5 minutes or so. Might replace the oil & filter and fire some Lucas Oil Stabilizer in to it.
It's idling a bit higher than at should, so we'll have to look into that a bit more.
Lights, indicators and all the electrics appear to be working fine now that it's running, although the catch to open the boot isn't working. Would it fail MOT on that?

Never had the boot tested at MOT?
