... I've found time to give the car a spring clean. Although with the wife and kids also at home I haven't spent as much time on it as I would have liked.

I didn't snow foam it as I'd given it a good rinse a few days prior, then found out I'd run out of car shampoo. Started by giving it a rinse, then washed with the 2 bucket method, rinsed, dried, decontaminated with an iron remover, rinsed again, detarred, rinsed, clayed, rinsed, dried then a coat of wax applied.

Didn't work too hard on the front bumper as it is so badly chipped it needs a respray. Didn't have time to polish. The bonnet needs a bit of paint correction so when I have the time that'll get a good polish.

In all I don't think it came out too badly, needs the summers on though, but waiting to get the 403Ms refurbed.

The Secretary of State for Transport, Grant Shapps has announced that vehicles which are due an MOT from 30 March 2020 will be given an automatic six-month extension.

On twitter he said

Given the circumstances I’m granting an MOT temporary exemption so that if your MOT is due from 30th March 2020 you will automatically receive a SIX-month extension. However, you must still keep your car in a roadworthy condition and garages will remain open if you need repairs.

So with the weather so good, my youngest cleaned the car for me yesterday and we went out and took some pictures.
