Here's how dirty it was 2 months ago. The garage started cleaning the front then looks like they gave up
Have your dirty car as a symbol of pride, shows it's used as was intended

Had mine just over a year and washed it once myself and have been through a hand car wash once and a drive through a couple of times.
Black looks great when it's clean but it doesn't last long.

you should be ashamed how can you let your cars get in such a state, just because the car cant tell u he wants a wash, you should give your cars the respect they deserve

I hand wash mine twice a month if I can, once a month at the very least and jet wash it once every two weeks at work. Body work needs some attention though but after the full repaint it'll get a more regular cleaning rota.

Wash it when you can spare the time to. And wax it every 3 months or so, top coat every month if you can be arsed. Couple of layers before the Winter and summer (bugs) and a clay once a year. Does me. Losing the will at the moment like everyone though.
In the morning I am cleaning 8 wheels! I wonder why...
