Re: 1982 1.5 CL Auto
The paint was starting to turn pink and she hasn't had a decent wash and polish since I've had her, so I decided to do it on the hottest day of the year!
Still needs doing properly by machine but should protect it for a while longer.

Turns out that my black Webasto sunroof.......isn't!
I thought it was black and had faded grey, apparently it's brown!

Gave the outside a wash and polish, polished the windows and treated the rubber and plastics. Came out quite well.

The washers weren't working very well when she went in for MOT, I cleaned the pipe out as best I could but it still looked full of crud.
The bottle wasn't much better.

Cleaned the bottle out, took a while but it's nice and clean in there now. Also got a new cap (blue to match the new rad cap) and a new pump.

Re: 1982 1.5 CL Auto
Did the rear washers today, nozzle was a bugger to get out but managed it in the end. Gaffa taped the new hose to the old one and pulled it through, I also cleaned the wiring and fitted a new pump.

Another random job, the straps for the parcel shelf had been bodged.
