This has got to be an anti OCD topic. How could you allow your cars to become so filthy!! Aaaaagh.........!!!!

Something about the little Fabia, the muck seems to lick-up the back of the car. Must be the short over-hang as my Superb doesn't get anywhere near this dirty on the same roads...

 

 

 

 

 

Carrying a little more speed than I should helps though

My old vRS last winter went a few weeks without a wash. I had to remove the salt, I couldn't sleep!

 

 

   Why didn't I look at the forum before I spent hours cleaning mine, even the snow foam had issues getting it clean.

only have to wait a week or so and it will have changed colour again.

Grrrr someone wrote 'clean me' on mine tonight while I was at work. Would love to have caught them in the act!!

Here is my dirty Yeti, a couple of weeks since a wash and filthy!

 

 

I like the Yeti in white. It really shows the accumulation of detritus to it's full potential

Is there a prize? My Fabia doesn't show the dirt too much but I'm willing to not wash or clean it until March 1st

I'll give you a like if you leave it till march

that'd be great but the MOT's due soon. Can they fail you on 'excessive build up of crap'?

lol

What will I get if I leave mine till March?

Does spilling half a bag of salted peanuts with the resulting mess of the interior count?  :think:

Got a large proportion of Grizedale forset in there too.

 

Pine needles are an absolute arse to get out of the carpet.

You and Sharkrider could win this Damo

This one was marshalling on a road rally on Friday night.

Yes, lights and registration plates not visible from a reasonable distance (20 metres), or the tester could refuse to test it.

I'll give 'em a quick wipe with an oily rag

I've been letting the Fabia continue to get filthy.  I've been thinking about upgrading headlight bulbs though as I do a lot of motorway miles in the dark at the moment.  A friend suggested cleaning my headlights, so I have using white vinegar.  I used a light blue cloth which is now a dark brown colour, and it seems my headlights actually light the road ahead now.

 

The rest of the car is still filthy though

I was gunna let my car accumulate a few weeks direst before posting a full picture but I caved today and gave it a clean...

It is illegal not to display a legible registration plate and the rozzers will pull you for it and if they want to be funny can issue a fixed penalty notice :(

Then they will have an excuse to look at everything else as they sometimes do!

Not really road related, but here's one from me today

And is this a car's equivalent of a wet fart :wonder:

My mate at work helped me clean the back.... Nice guy.
