Only in for a Service and MOT?

This little lady has come in for a service and MOT. She is intact, everything is in the right place and all the parts are right, but she has been left standing outside at the mercy of the English elements. The following pictures illustrate what happens when moving parts are not maintained properly.
the stainless steel hub nut is more weather-proof...
the engine casing is covered in a white mildew.
At this point it's hard to say what the engine's like inside? The 'service' has begun at the front end, a recovery like this needs to be systematic!
