My car has been sitting on my drive since 23rd December.. not started it or nothing..
then this sunday (so pretty much dead on 3 months later) i checked the levels and thought i would try and start her up....
1st turn of the key and she fires up    
WINNER.
its getting towed off one day this week to get its gearbox fitted and then she will be back on the road 
yey..
Im just really impressed on how it started first time. Got one of those Optima YellowTop batteries.. they really are amazing

Until 2 weeks ago my engine hadn't been started since August, it started first time once I got enough charge in the battery. No alternator on it still
