Mate, you've done a stirling job of your car.

I've been looking at tidying my engine up, can I ask, how did you get it looking so new? What did you use and did you have to take it apart?

well its a young engine so wasnt too bad to start with, just used engine degreasent on any part possible then got a damp cloth and scrubed away at everything. any rusted metal got a sanding down and then i top off all the plastics with meguires tyre shine
wouldnt recomend any hoses either

Quality man, cheers! If I can get as good a finish on the paintwork and engine as you have, i'll be well chuffed. I've currently got a 2001 model that looks pretty tired in all honestly and I really aint got a clue where to start. I'm basically just wanting to do what you have and just make slight changes here and there without going over the top.

Think I might put some pics up of it and try and get somw tips and advice on how to sort it out. Nows a better time than ever with summer coming etc.
