Thanks for the input chaps.
I stumbled across the car parked at a mercedes indie. It's been there for around a year and a half with a problem with the roof. The indie said it needed a new roof module and the customer wasn't prepared to pay £1500 for a new one so the car sat there ever since.
I contacted the owner and agreed a price and bought the car complete with its collected moss.
I recharged the battery and to my amazement it started up literally first turn of the key.
First job was to get it all cleaned up to remove the moss and fury interior!
It cleaned up perfectly so then onto the roof and other electrical gremlins.
After s lot of reading and fault finding I managed to get everything working for a grand total of £4!!
All the aluminium fuses had oxidized over time causing temperamental contacts. I changed all the cars fuses for new and everything is perfect.

Let's just say I picked it up for an absolute steal!
Less than a quarter of its value.
I've done a fair bit of reading up on these and seems there are a lot of issues with electrics.
Bills for thousands could have been saved by many people by just replacing the battery and fuses.
