Default Does my car need a clean??

Went out to see some mates doing motorcross and to get to the field..well lets just say they didnt look like roads !!
My neighbours think I wash my car all the time, but I think this weekend I might have an excuse
(BTW the inside is just as bad as 2 young boys+muddy shoes =dirt )

well since we have a scooby meet this afternoon, I think I will leave it as it is, cos they all shine up their cars so no point competing
Plus I would rather spend time with my 2 little urchins than go out in the cold.

Blind...ron are saying that my car is dirty


How dare you !! tis but a few specks of road dirt..
well since yours is permantely spotless I see why

One of the 22B vents is coming off soon, to be replaced by a mini scoop to give some airflow onto the induction kit

They do make a great difference to the bonnet though

Nah, left it like it is
Driving into work tomorrow so that should raise a few eyebrows, but what the heck the car is going to be dirty by the end of the week anyway.
will probably give it a splash though I think the eco friendly farmer subsidised mud is good for it

Did get some odd looks this morning from just about everybody
I think the looks and comments ranged from " lazy bugger " to "been rallying at the weekend?? "
The guy at the NCP car park nearly had a fit when I drove in..
(he went and parked me right in the corner away from any nice shiny mercs and bmw's !! )

I seem to remember a thread ages ago about how dirty does your car get..should have entered it now

By the time you go back to it Chris and all the mud has dried and fallen out of the arches and off the flaps I would not be suprised if the car park attendant gives you a sweeping brush as you go to get in you car tonight...
