Washed the cars on Friday and went for a drive with Deb on Saturday as it was a nice day (heated seats needed though).

Looks great, enjoy. :driving: :thumbsup:

I cleaned the dust off mine on Sunday morning, spotless. Emptied the tank driving across the SW moors. Then had to clean her again Sunday evening before I parked her up in the garage again. :lol:

OCD rules :thumbsup:

Well bugger me backwards through a hedge!

Dry road tonight but stuck behind a tractor with trailer carrying slurry...which was sloshing over the edge!

Seems to be more tractor activity this year...although I guess last year I was working from home so avoided it.

I know the feeling!

I borrowed next door's jet-washer to get the pollen off my Z4 and daily on Friday, then got carried away and hand-washed them both.

So sure enough it rained on Saturday and left some dust - then when I was coming home on Sunday at around 6pm I got caught in a snow-storm. :?

No wonder I don't do it too often! As they both live outdoors it just seems a bit pointless. :lol:

Cleaned mine but I have a drive that is basically a farm track so dirty within 500 yards, better off taking it to a jet wash although I hate doing that :(
