Default Reviving my Audi thats stood for 8 years?

So the time has come to finally get my 80 GT up and running again for my daily as the missus will be having my new Euro box to run around in when the baby's born in a couple of weeks.

Its a 1.8i engine, hasn't really run or been turned over for about 4-5 years , its only done about 45k from new and apart from needing a respray it looks pretty sound if in need of a bleedin good service.

So what should i do before using it as my daily?

I was going to change the oil, filter, plugs, belt, battery, check the water, then turn it over a few times before firing it up. Then all i was going to do was replace the pads, check all the hosing and brake lines and then take it for an MOT.

Is there any thing else i should be looking to do?

Once i've got a years ticket on it then i can start modding it

As it stands



Cheers
