About to attempt to resurrect my Mk2 Golf GTI off the driveway this weekend after 15 months off the road. I have started the car up a few times during this period and moved it up and down the driveway but haven't taken all the precautions that I should of :-( The car hasn't been started for about 5 months now and I was wondering what precautions I should NOW be taking e.g. changing oil, air filter etc.
Thanks in anticipation

Tim,
I would suggest you just give it a very thorough service. Pay particular attention to brakes, testing for any siezure / sticking of caplipers and pistons. Change brake fluid once you are happy that you are not going to have to replace any seals etc. Stupid things like blocked washer jets may well be your most frustrating problems !!
Good luck.Adam.
