That's much better.
Gunk Frederick Salmonella, and you received the plate for your 92nd Birthday?
The Clubman was never a big seller, 7 hatches to 1 clubman. I’ve always liked them, especially the earlier R55 with the strange suicide door. They really are a unique little car which are just a bit of fun amongst a landscape of boring generic cars.
We sold our 2008 Cooper D a couple of years ago and missed it so much we’ve bought another.

A couple of years ago we had a random trailer light coming on after a huge deluge of rain. I traced it water had got into the trailer socket. I stripped it all down cleantand applied silicon dielectric grease. It came back after I used the trailer recently. It's been random, so I left it, but this week I decided to have a proper go at fixing it.
I dropped the rear bumper and under tray so I could have a proper play with trailer circuit. It's quite simple power into a trailer ECU, which talks with the car and a loom to the socket. After a bit of unplugging and reconnecting I think I found the problem. Tiny amount of residue corrosion bridging across the left indicator circuit. Enough to upset the trailer system and indicators. I've given it a thorough clean , used airline to get any remnants of grease from between the pins and so far it has not misbehaved. Started reassembly tonight will finish off tomorrow morning.
Disassembled state, which is far easier than I thought it would be
