Default Amazon starting

On Sunday morning I got the Amazon up and running after a two and a half year break in the garage at home. All I needed was a new battery and a bit of churning from the starter and off it went. Checked the lights and brakes and all OK. Next an oil change and a clean followed by an MOT. I think many a newer car would not be as easy to get up and running. The plan is to have it back on the road shortly for the summer and enjoy it again. I have been distracted from the Amazon due to my TR6.

Glad to hear you have the Amazon up and running again, both your Amazon and your TR6 are lovely cars, hope to catch up with you and the rest of the guys soon, I've still got the Amazon and the S40, was tempted to get rid of the Amazon a few weeks ago, but decided to keep it.
