+2S arrived

My 'new' Elan +2S 130 arrived yesterday.
Picked it up, drove to the custom and paid a fortune, and drove it home (app 30 km). Used the car a lot during the afternoon/evening, and found no big problems. Warning light for Hazard is always on, guess this is due to a earth problem.
Windows works OK - but slowly, and headlamps raises OK (but a bit unequal).
Biggest problem are two cracks inthe rear wheel arch, presumed made during the shipping periode, as pictures from befor shipping proves the cracks were not there then ;-(
Have talked to the shipping company, they sent me to my insurance company...
I'll fix the fiberglass myself (have gained some experience after rebuilding an Europa), and will try to find paint that match.
The car will hopefully be licensed on Friday June 30th, can't wait
