- Remote unlock doesnt work since within the key, the battery lost its contact with the activator. Can be welded easily by a specialist.
- Replace the whole interior back and front Seats. Found brand new in Europe available to ship for 400 Euros, order is on hold. Local options per seat start from 200€, very hefty.

Selling the car due to other responsibilities coming but its a good project to continue considering mechanically its done. Now with the last piece of restoration, the car can become a classic in several years if taken care of, and driven enjoyably on the roads of sunny Cyprus as the perfect car for retreats.
The pricing can be negotiated but the true buyer will see and appreciate the work and money being put into it with all its issues provided, hence the price.
