    Fantastic Job. I like you have been washing car every weekend. I use the bowdens product and they are awesome. I have hear chemical guys are great as well.

    Looking good.

    Fantastic job. Although it looks like you've rubbed a little hard round the number plate.

    I cleaned mine once. Shocked

    I've a santorini black one too! Love to keep it clean and polished.

    Problem is i'm never the lucky one! Everytime I wash it, it rains the next day! Typical!

    Can't even plan a clean of the car with a good run of dry days coming up as the weathermen are never right! I guess thats what we have to put up with in the UK!

    Anyone got any tips as far as diesel drips/spills when you go to fill the car up? I've moved petrol stations as the garage I used to go to had these terrible pumps that kept dripping small amounts of diesel on the paintwork beneath the filler. But even the other garage I got to has a similar issue... Would have thought some brain box out there might have invented some kind of towel/pad that you can put under the filler hole to catch drips, but can't see anything around??

    Yeah, thats what I have to do and as soon as I can as I can imagine the fuel won't be doing anything good to the paintwork!

    Life's too short - mine only get washed by dealers. That is one advantage of the quality issues Whistle
