    Top Tip - You should run it on diesel if you are laying it up for that long. It helps keep everything lubricated inside the engine and fuel system. Learned this off my mate The DJSE 😂

      What you doing here? Lol. Maybe he could get a AA/Rac fuel drain van out to it after 😆 And maybe get a fire going under the engine to get it to warm up before start up pmsl

      If you look back at my earlier videos mate it's on them. I only use this garage now to store a car in. That's what I love about the mk3 is it just looks like a standard mini 😂
