So the 940 arrived safely, my mate Joe did the transport for me and picked up some parts from me that I had put to one side for his mk1 760 turbo, it was nice to clear soe space in the ever crowded garage!

I noticed the central locking seemed a bit lazy so I pulled the battery off and put it on charge with my smart charger which went in to save mode, it is now off save mode and is reconditioning the battery so it was put on charge just in time.

Which led to the discovery of this, it has gone through unfortunately so needs dealing with as it is an MOT failure if spotted, so that will be dealt with.

And then I prepped the engine and gearbox for removal

It just needs the downpipe bolts undoing and the gearbox mount removing then I can pull them out. I can't remove the gearbox mount until the engine is attached to the engine crane otherwise it will just tilt back and smack the back of the engine on the bulkhead which isn't ideal, the mount is slackened off ready to remove though.
So the engine and gearbox should be out tomorrow
