Gave our Rosey a oil/air service, checked the plenums were still dry and had water poured on me by my youngest while I was under the car This is our air filter after 4000 miles

Sealed up rear lights and the modification to sun roof drain, which was blocked. Bumper off next weekend for light refurb, fan resistor and air intact tube change. Cant beat MG ownership! Lol

I decided that I had too much skin on the back of my hand and my knuckles, so decided to remove some by changing my cabin filter.

Emptied the junk out of the boot, vacuumed and polished the interior, and had a day out

Mrs MB, myself and the two girls, had a run out to Whitby, fab day finished off with a trip to the Magpie Cafe for fish and chips

What a change, actually enjoying a day out with the family, rather than fannying on with the car

Oil and filter done, undertray finally replaced while it was up on stands for the oil. Found a small pond in the spare wheel well which wasn't there last week. I'm hoping it came in through the boot vent on the nearside - a result of going through a deep puddle after a full days rain last week and nothing more serious.

Doddle, just remove the lower dash trim, and unclip the bottom from underneath.

It's all in the method, no more required than an extra couple of self tappers
