Looks very clean man, how did you clean the engine bay?
 
thanks! it took a lot of effort,i used petrol and de greaser to remove all the black traffic film, then removed all the brackets and bits and pieces that were in the way and wax polished the whole bay, used de greaser and a tooth brush to clean the cam cover.
i think the results were worth the effort.
 
Seriously clean man, looks like it just rolled out the factory doors !!!
 
You could eat your dinner off that engine bay!!! Well done.
 
That's a beauty!
Is your air filter really, really dirty?
And in the last picture, is the front of the car over a deep hole?
 
thanks, yeah the filter is pretty black, not really sure of the best way to clean it, perhaps a wash through with paint thinners, or may just buy a new one,
yep your right, its over a 6 foot deep inspection pit, a very very handy thing to have:D
 
Well done mate, you have done a cracking job there. Are you happy with everything has the car been OK?

Oh i am off to a big Mini show tomorrow for the weekend over in Kent. The first i have been to in about 9 years. Will be interesting to see how things have changed.

Cheers Duncan
