Right - its that time of year - who has the dirtiest car?

Boo if only you had asked me before the weekend, my car was supremely dirty. Now he is quite clean, no doubt won't last long though with this weather! Instead a picture (taken agggeeesss ago) of the dirtiest he has been:

EDIT: In fact so long ago the alloys and repeaters aren't the same

I thought Eddie Stobart were super anal about their trucks always being spotless?

They are.

I work for James Irlam Logistics, which is a part of the Stobart Group, alas, the wash is not working in our yard!

- Tbh, even Stobart vehicles get filthy at this time of year, washing them is almost pointless.

60p a minute ?!

40 of the James Irlam trailers now advertise the latest ‘Keep Moving’ campaign along with an information number that drivers held up in traffic jams can call for advice, obviously when stopped and in a safe position to do so!

Not mine anymore, just washed mine this morning, so glad I got the collinite on there a month or so back, took me about half hour to get it spanky clean and get all that salt/dirt off.

Not quite the dirtiest, but not far off...

This is my effort after a week including a trip to Birmingham and back. It doesnt look so dirty at some angles though.

Mine's fairly filthy at the moment too

I washed my old 306 once in the two years I had it.
It was a cheap nasty work horse.
The Manta gets washed regularly enough though, shows every spec of dirt being white

but it's a win colour lol

Pathetic.

At one point a few weeks ago my car was so dirty, I got stopped by the police!

Overlag · 8 Feb 2009 at 01:21

If mine was black it would be filty. As it's silver, the layers of salt and grime from the A303 yesterday don't show as much

Best Fiesta shape ever I think. I have to hold judgement though until the new ST comes out.
