Evening all.
Just picked up this lovely machine today and drove her back home, around 5 hours of bliss. Great cars for the money. I did a wee bit of research but not tons, a few things I'm working on:
1) Alloy refurb
2) New stereo head unit (New Head Kenwood)
3) Full valet
4) Machine polished and ceramic coated
I am handing her into my trusted mechanic in a couple of weeks, I am utterly mechanically dyslexic but did hope some of you might give me a "check list" of things I should ask him to look over? I note suspension and seals for letting in water as well as wheel arch liners. He's a great mechanic I've used him for donkeys years so anything you can advise would be appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.

PS My daughter has a cracking wee A Class, she's had it for ages. And the blue SL in this photo I had a loan of for a few days and made my decision to buy one for myself, but a little newer.
