Mini bath and cosmetics time...

It has been 7 years since I bought my Mini, and 4 years since I had it restored and re-painted. Since I brought it back from Penang to KL in early-2005, the poor car has been sort of neglected. It had not had a proper wash, and had never been polished before.

So this weekend, I decided it was time to give it a good scrubbing and waxing. It has been so long since I last washed and polished a car on my own, I had totally forgotten how long it takes, and how much energy it saps!

It was a 4-hour labour of love for me, and the end result was simply to die for. It has been a long time since I last could see my own reflection on the car body. Makes me so proud to own a Mini.
