I spent 3.5 hours to wash the Zed and Polo this monring, before the temperature drops to zero again tomorrow. :)

Did anyone else wash the car after Christmas?
 
Did mine on Sunday. Temp was well above zero so washed the fleet.

Bit icy underfoot though as we still had a load of snow around, but I felt better to remove the salt and crud

Did mine today also. Blast with pressure washer, snow foam, rinsed, then 2 bucket wash. Looks spotless now. :D Not great weather for getting it dry though.

Talking about Polo's, the number of potholes appearing on the roads is pretty alarming after all the snow and ice. :?

I use a petrol leaf blower does a great job removing most water especially round 108s
 
I haven't driven the car since last Thursday. All discs are bit rusty after the wash. I think I have to take it out and dry the discs.
 
Mine got washed on boxing day, first wash in some 2 to 3 weeks , I was starting to feel, weeelll , a bit anxious, :lol: . Found a place on Old Coach road , 3 guys washing cars in a temprature of -3 , plan to wash it myself tomorrow. clean inside etc . checked the oil and coolant levels today, Iv read some post on here about the Zed using oil ,in 10,000 miles mine hasnt used a drop :D . Coolant level needs topped up, just enough to give the needle float thing a bit of bounce
 
Have no hair to wash, so did my car today - temp just about high enough. Not a proper wash (feeling ropey), but got the grime off.

Snow foam to soak in and have at the nasty salts and grime, quick two bucket wash, spray with Poorboy's QD+ and dry.

Had my camera out to photograph the seats in situ, so here is is...

Slightly off topic, but you can see how much the 330 brakes fill my 17" snow wheels.
