Blimey! Are they meant to be shiny like that?
I don't think that's natural... where's the coating of oil and rust? Why isn't it leaking? Nooo
It looks beautiful mate, truly stunning. Can't wait to see the entire whole car all in one piece

It doesn't have to - surely you can't be hiding it in a car?

can not see a problem myself with screw on oil filters, makes it nice and easy to change, move with the times or stay in the 60`s LOL

Actually, Mini filter housing is a good idea, turns changing the oil and filter from a pain to a pleasure.

So does the oil filter. I gather the Mini used one too (?) making that 'period' as well.

LATER The early Minis didn't, and I've no idea when/if they changed, so I retract that bit if it's rubbish
