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.

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.

Great stuff - all in the small details.

Those wheels really do work.

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.
