I like to remove the wheels every so often & check for rust, if alls ok remove the dirt, then wash, wax & polish under the wheel arches, grease up the suspension, adjust the breaks & put the wheels back on, sounds tedious but only needs to be done twice a year, Steve. http://img106.imageshack.us/img106/6029/a1su3.jpg > What the Camlo Undershields? > [quoted text clipped - 11 lines] > > Taffy

What the Camlo Undershields?

Well I believe you have to check if their actually suitable for your
Mini model/year because they can foul later components that got fitted
to later models.

I do remember them being tested years ago and it was claimed back in
the mid 1980's that if their not fitted properly (and the example kit
didn't come with enough pins/nails or whatever to mount them
effectively), then they can cause dirt and grime to stay behind the
sheilds and then accelerate problems even more.

I guess waxoyling is generally the best option?

Anyone know where I can get some plastic front wing undershields and for how much? i saw the advert in mini magazine for some at Derek's Mini's but at £65 they are too much. Any other outlets known and do they fit properly Cheers Martin
