I try and give my fleet a once-over with Snowfoam and the power wash every week - keeps them looking reasonable, and in summer I can get them really shiny with only a little effort.

At the moment the ZS is fairly clean, despite having been to Scotland twice in 2 weeks!

Washed mine on Monday, before heading up for a couple of new tyres.... gave up as the wash and wax suds were freezing on the car



Roll on spring, I hate this time of year

Im afraid im Mr OCD when it comes to keeping the car clean. Every Saturday it gets a jet wash providing its not below freezing and Sunday ( while the lioness is at work ) i attack it with Showroom shine for a quick polish. I get some real funny looks off the neighbours sometimes too !!!
I don't care though. Im only doing something i enjoy.

My 1.8T is now my everyday runabout, it is minging. The 260 comes out of the garage in suitable weather to let it stretch its legs. I got some of that Demon foam stuff, need to try it on the 1.8T. I had a brainwave and washed the 1.8T a few days ago, I nearly got frostbite!
