I've notices a nice looking 4.7 HSE sitting in a some ones front yard, the doors have cobwebs on them so it has not been driven for a while.

I was thinking of knocking on the door and making an offer, but.... there is a whole lot of condensation on the inside of the windscreen, I mean masses. You can not see through the front windscreen.

The car has not been opened for a while, the inside is damp, what kind of problems would I expect from the electrics?

Considering that the BeCM is inside under the driver's seat, I'd be very sus. P38A's are not fond of water, as a couple of us have found the hard way :o

Maybe the sunroof has leaked? If the interior is wet too, I'd hate to think what the leather seats would smell like after sitting damp for so long. Doesn't sound like a good prospect to me.

Cheers, Paul.

Bugger. I was afraid of that.
