I drained the oil from mine, in readiness for an oil change. But I think I've got a leaky oil seal on the O/S drive shaft. I don't know if that's going to cause problems come MOT time (i.e. at the end of July)? So as I didn't start till late, I just left it to drain overnight and I then watched the extra's disc on 'The Italian Job' 40th anniversary DVD. That meant watching the 2nd disc (I believe there's more on the 1st disc too) and what's there is pretty good and they've certainly done a lot of digging to get all the facts and stories (plus rumours). Either way they interviewed a large proportion of the cast and everyone stated how they loved the film and adored the Minis. David Salamone (the bloke who played 'Dominic' and who drove the red Mini in the film), claimed there were 6 Minis left after the filming was in the can (i.e. done/finished). But either the writer or the producer (most likely the producer, but I'll have to watch it again), stated that there were no Minis left, otherwise he'd have kept one. So even though I've got it on DVD with the earlier release, I think it's definitely worth forking out a few pennies to buy this one also. |

So it might just be a bit of oil spray from somewhere else? |
