I'm looking at buying another 20vt (3rd one I will have owned I think its a bug), it's been stood for over 5 years so will be a bit of a project obviously the belts need doing, what else should I do, it dose run and has had the injectors replaced, but that is all it's very low milage, if I do get it it won't be on the road for a while just used as a weekend project.

Thanks Will

Tyres will definitely need to be changed but was thinking more in and around the engine bay, I imagine it will be up on axel stands for ages.

Inside a barn I believe I've not seen it yet, but have been told it is now running

A chap on here called Kieran whos Marios mate had a sprintey that i collected for him that was stood for 7 years on a drive.
I replaced the timing belt,battery and the oil.Primed the oil side for 2 minutes before starting and it fired first crack of the key.On the fuel that had been in the tank for 6 years.

After the fans cut in i replaced the oil and filter again and the car ran faultless and even made it around Curborough and Spa without fault.
