Yes, certainly have, she takes less maintenance than the car!

Thanks, I assume you remove all the panels and put them on the floor or something? My engine bay is awful, needs a really good clean.

Nope everything left in situ, just avoid the alternator when cleaning.

I have too many Pete, but I had to save this one or it wouldn’t have lasted past the next mot.

Well I made the most of the nice weather this afternoon by attacking the carpet in the car, aided by Meg the quality control collie who quite likes to chase the end of the shampooer!



No Werthers originals to be found here...



I can see food down here...









And there was even a lagoon coloured beetle hanging about!



If anyone has a set of sandstone cloth seats in good condition for sale, send me a pm!
