Beautifully. Fairly OCD when it comes to detailing. As a daily driver, I use touchless car washes in winter with rocker panel blasting to work out road salt. Actually got MINI to do a free rust repair just before year 5 ended as tiny bubbling occurred just above the chrome lift of the boot. The body sports a mirror finish after clay bar, and random orbital polishing with good wax. Cheers!

Awesome.
I lived in the u.p for 5 years so I'm all too familiar with snow.
Looks good man. Props.

That is one beautiful S, my friend.
Will do my best to keep up!
