Cool

I washed and polished the Austin Maxi this morning then put it away in the barn. Glad I did because a great rotter of a cloud came and spilled its load all over the village. My Scoob has filth on it from last October, it hides the stone chips and dings so I wasn't bothered

Encounter the same problem . . .Just washed + waxed it today, but, as sods law would have it, will most likely rain tomorrow,(http://www.met-office.gov.uk/) so will leave it in the Garage!

If you think that is bad, the place I have just soent 4 months at, you can have bright sunshines, 10 mins later torrential rain, followed by bright sunshine, followed by a blizzard, followed by hail. All with a constant 14 - 20 mph wind.
