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

Have a seach for Devonutopia's guide for polishing headlights. It may be on FB though, which won't help :think:

I wasn't going to wash SWMBO's but she took it to the local wash n scratch n lick

 

Here's mine half jet washed, the right hand side is still dirty enough to write things on.

 

 

I saw a blue mkii octavia vrs estate on the M5 tho evening that puts everyone in tho thread to shame. Myself included. The back of it was just brown and black all over

Here's mine before I washed her at the weekend.

How are they all so sooty? I've got no EGR, no cat and custom map etc and never get a sooty rear.

Took a picture of mine this morning but the bloody flash went off and made it look cleaner than it actually is

 

I will do some more driving

I'll get a picture tomorrow although brimma's looks much dirtier than my little fabia

OK I know I posted pics of mine in an unrelated thread elsewhere, but here's my contribution after a single run with a newly washed car from Whitby to Scarborough and back!

Are dirt tracks used as roads up north or something.

The fabia looked cleaner earlier (it rained)

I got stuck in the mud....
