Hi everybody,I'm a new member living in France, I have been given a 1971 144 GL B20A 150K kms (90K miles) the 'problem' being that it is in Paris 150mls away and it has been parked in its underground spot for 5 years (5 years ago it was brought out all fluids and lines/brakes were renewed ) I'm hoping that you could advise me on the minimum I should do before I start and drive this old girl,as I don't think that the garage owners will appreciate it if I work on the car where it is - towing is not an option!Thanks and any advice is appreciated.
