Bah, I spent ages making my car shiny the other day, and then early this morning it drizzled a bit and now its covered in that sand crap :(
I know sh*ts bad right now with all that starving bullsh*t and the dust storms and we are running out of french fries and burrito coverings.

You cant win either way, even in the height of summer the trees and insects splat crud all over your clean car.

Washed mine last year, might be time to touch it up with a rubber spatula. :lol: Interior gets cleaned when rear view becomes obstructed. :lol:

I watched a neighbour a few doors away taking his 5 series wheels completely off to clean them the other day - I wonder if I could get away with spraying mine brake dust grey...:lol:

there was an aquaintance i knew in old hill that had a Escort turbo mk1
He used to litterally strip his car to bits to clean it. he never even drove it either.
I had a mk Xr2 that was washed every other day  :D
How things change as you get older. Only wash the car now when its a different colour to what it normally is or the police ask me to clean the number plate  :lol:

I clean mine whenever it starts being a brown car, instead of a black one :D

Ive completely vacced the interior & mats once so far, since March.

My brother actually managed to wash his a couple of weeks ago, the second time since he bought the thing.

Its up for MOT and Tax next month IIRC...

I hate the rain - no traction!

Serious - itll sail through - even if its falling to bits - its the english MOT :p

Try buying some tyres with tread on rather than the metal showing through :mrgreen:

They warantee the things for the first five years.
