I have a big back room like that one you have and it kinda looks like a garage, all tools and car parts will be getting stored there, along with multiple number plates going on the wall.

What's the best paint to paint the plastic engine cover with? Do I need a high temp plastic paint? Also how about oil, coolant cap etc. Like the idea of coloured hoses to maybe at some point.
Also how are these covers removed? Mine looks something like this one

It's 2or3 small Alan keys or torques then it just pulls off. Use heat proof lacquer though if you don't it burns off and comes in the cab and it's nasty stuff! Speaking from experience as I made that noob mistake a few years ago lol

Gas meter which is going up at a crazy rate. Spent well over £10 in under 2 days. Pretty sure something's wrong with it.

Well the cars broke, no way can I afford to get it repaired now so probably try and sell and get a cheaper car.
