With a black car, you have to take a slightly relaxed look at things. This one lives outside 24/7, I clean it once a week with my wife's MX5 and ( occasionally) my company car. I keep it clean, but not obsessively so.If it was as pristine as some on the forum, I'd never use it. I went out for a thrash on sunday in the rain, it got filthy, I don't get stressed about it, I'll give it a quick clean again at the weekend. It is my intention to enjoy it, not worry about it
