Definitely looks like you need a coupe in the line up

Great morning out, decent roads, in friendly company… good coffee and a quality bacon ciabatta

One of them has a clean engine bay the other has an engine bay

You can get it cheaper, but not much in it by the time you add on postage;

Nothing worse than a dirty engine bay.
Some people have no shame

Apologies boys and girls... for a car with such low mileage, i agree that the engine bay should be spruced up....

I wont let you down again

Depends on what you’re using it for as it’s an APC - all purpose cleaner.

For an engine bay, off the top off my head, somewhere between 1/20 & 1/10 - really depends on how much oil and grime has accumulated. Yours really wasn’t that bad, so I’d start out with 1/20 and see how you go.

Spray on with a trigger bottle, leave a few minutes, agitate with a detailing brush or something like a modestly firm paintbrush and wipe away the residue with microfibres. Once everything is dry use some of the stuff Ian was talking about on the plastics and hoses

Would this do the job? Ive already got the vinyl and rubber cleaner in the garage

It says hose off though

The engine and machine cleaner is a great product, it’s just really expensive for the quantity you get. The other product is also good. So, yes, they will do the job

I’d suggest a hose with a ‘rain fall’ type option would be ok for rinsing if you’re careful, personally wouldn’t use a pressure washer under the bonnet… but many do.
