I finally cleaned the plenum covers that I had removed a while ago. Treated them with black WOW glued the loose rubber window edge to the top cover. Fitted the carpet clips that came with the car but were never installed. Had quite a fight with the thick carpet and the narrow pre cut openings, but after some messing around I got them in. Quite an improvement: the mats are now neatly kept in place! Crawled in the boot to operate the manual latch, after I had closed it after disconnecting the battery: stupid. Gave the leather on the drivers side yet another treatment with Gliptone. Is now getting that nice matte finish and the lovely smell. Did some cleaning under the bonnet; am still hasitant to give it a full clean because of the large amount of electrical wires and connectors (it's the V8, so not as cleanly organised as the other models).
