So me and Craig are taking the engine out this weekend!
That's if nothing goes wrong ofc, and looking at the rest of this thread it seems pretty unlikely
Pictures to follow

Hi I'm Simon and I've picked the coldest snowiest day ever to take the engine out of my Mini.
It's a good job I love you. Fool.

The best time to take out an engine is the coldest possible day and its even better if its icy!
