Oddly, I jumped in the S2 to take it for a run yesterday but the bugger didn't start. Nothing major as it's due to lack of use so the battery was as flat as a pancake.

Hopefully the SASers won't see this as I'll only get abuse for not driving the car like I should. paperbag

You're not far wrong actually Graeme.

I've been driving the Fiat to and from work most days for the past few months and using the S2 at the weekend as I hate just sitting in traffic in it.

The good news is that after the S2 didn't start, the Chim got taken for a drive instead. It was awful. biglaughdriving

The S2 has always been pretty reliable actually. Other than requiring a new brake bomb, fan switch and expansion tank the only thing that ever really went wrong was when the heated washer jet wiring decided to melt!

Other than that, I'm just pretty anal about things getting sorted. As soon as I replace the CV Boot and cam chain (they stretch and sound tappety), it'll be out for a hoon.
