Nice pic by the way!

I'm disappointed.....I thought my car had been posessed by evil spirits.

Bit weird about it seemingly only affecting silver cars though????

It's strange but I'd never noticed this until after reading this thread and, lo and behold, this morning after a light dusting of snow I had the very same effect on my boot!

It's funny but I noticed the bonnet of my car had this too, I've never seen this before though! Silver and blue cars then?
