Did you give the sills a seeing to inside and out? as i reckon these are going to be an issue as the cars age.

It seems to be where the sills meet on the bottom and slightly overlap, well worth mixing a bit of engine oil with the chassis wax so it creeps better and doesnt dry out which waxoyl will, also be careful the wax doesnt block the drain slits in the bottom of the sills.

You will be amazed by the amount of dirt that comes out when the plastic sill cover is removed!

Looks good
I actually like getting under mine to top up the waxoyl as often as I can
The last service I had they asked me if I cleaned it underneath on a regular basis they had not seen one as good underbelly as mine.

My mates totally get it since they have their hobby projects which require constant attention. The minions get it as they get to do “cool stuff”.

SWMBO doesn’t get it at all Whistle
