Wow, I checked this thread about an hour or so ago and there were no further posts and now look at it
I will contact the ebay seller to find out where I stand with this however you have given me hope that I can bring this miggy back to life so if they dont offer up a refund then I will have a go at cleaning it up.
I will keep this thread updated with how I get on and if i do clean it I will be sure to post some pictures
Thanks to all who have contributed so far...
