I hope your starting it ;)

I started mine after two weeks of standing (due to rad leak) and it took a few minutes and a bit of head scratching to get her off the mark :)

i left mine for 2 weeks, and the battery was dead on return.

Was showing about 10-11v on the commander, but wasnt enough to turn it over, everything else worked just wouldnt even try to turn over,  thinking my alarm is a bit of a power drain...

How much did you pay for the bushes (are they uprated ones)? I think mine have gone as there is a pretty bad noise whenever I go over even the slightest bump! Would they also make the car steer slightly strange?? :confused:
