Ralph I'm trying a few last things on the car, then i will admit defeat! it now runs and fills the driveway with grey/black smoke. A few people have given me great advice on what to do list and this is almost complete (I don't like to admit defeat) I have reversed the LE today whilst it was in the mood for running and the clutch is very high and there is spongy brakes (something I already knew about). I will add some pictures on monday of the car, I've peeled back some of the halfords car seat covers and the original seats are very tatty and black. Lots of plastic brown trims is either damaged or is missing. The two rear doors and tail gate are rust free, the tailgate does have a dent. Cills are all good. One wheel arch has had a piece of plate welded onto it. The major fault is the engine, why it is indicating low oil pressure? It could be due to the lack of oil changes it had and overfilling the engine could be quite worn as I have already replaced the rockers and pushrods due to excessive wear.
Ralph you'll be pleased to know the worst of the infection has passed!
