Ok so today we made sure the engine wasn't seized, we manually turned it and it turns so thats good!
Connected a charged battery and as soon as the battery fired up, the horn was on all the time, so took battery off and disconnected horn (wiring issue?)
Put battery back on, most electrics work, apart from the rear demister is always saying its on? (again wiring issue?)
Turned the key a couple of times, the water pump kept making a noise, so disconnected that, still no response from engine.
We then searched around for the starter motor, only did we find it after jacking the car in the air, then we discovered its going to be a big job to get out the starter motor to have a look!

So were saving that job for another day as it looks like we will have to take drive shaft off and other bits to even gain access! Anyone taken of a starter motor before?

Heres the frustrating bit for me though, I am no mechanic so always have to rely on my dad and I don't want to keep troubling my Dad as he has plenty of his own car projects to be getting on with, just wish I was a pro when it came to engines, all I keep doing is watching videos on Youtube which I find is helping with getting me some knowledge when it comes to engines and parts!

So may possibly need to replace starter motor depending on what its like when we finally get it out!
Thanks and that was just a quick update.
She came up nicely with a quick wash removing most of the green and leaves from the body work!
