First time on the road in 21 years, it drove ok right off the bat. A couple of minor things to address but nothing serious. Turbo boosts up nicely and it runs great through the gears. Clutch releases a little high for my taste but that is easily adjusted. Seat belt retractor is sticky, stuff you would expect after a multi-decade slumber.
The car has modified suspension with Bilsteins and larger sway bars and mounts, it has a firm ride that borders on unpleasant on bumps. It's tight as can be, though, like the mileage would make you expect. Synchros are perfect, steering tight, etc. I'll try to get a video up soon when I get a co-pilot.
We need to figure out the A/C, compressor goes on quietly when jumped but fan switch doesn't work at this time. Might just be a fuse. I also need to figure out the component stereo...I can't even figure out how to turn it on.
All in all, just a joy. I can't get over how tiny it is....makes a modern Mini look like an SUV in comparison:
