how dirty is your motor?

GeX · 28 Oct 2010 at 22:21

it gets 7mins and 30seconds on the jetwash once a week to keep the dust off

Heh i've never washed or cleaned mine inside our out and i've had it for 3 years. Oddly, it doesn't even look dirty on the outside. Inside is getting a bit dusty though.

Those of you with dusty interiors... get a pledge duster, it costs like £3 or something. I keep mine in the boot and get it out every now and then for a quick dusting.

I commit the ultimate sin of looking after the paint well but not cleaning the wheels.

Why? Because the wheels look better when they are dirty.

What's wrong with a cloth? I keep one of those micro fibre ones in the door pocket for the windscreen - sometimes I give the dash top a quick once over if I'm bored

Because the pledge duster is so fluffy that it gets into the hard-to-reach areas and the air vents, instrument panel etc. With a cloth you have to poke your fingers about and you might even push the dust further in.

i thought i was bad, not washing it for a couple of weeks, you lot are mad, if you can't be bothered to wash it, just pay a fiver

I keep the inside of my car clean. The outside has been cleaned twice in 18 months. Probably won't clean it on the outside until the spring now. It is getting far too cold.

CliffyBiro · 29 Oct 2010 at 02:24

Too cold for washing the car now. It'll do till March.

Considering dirty car == internet cools;

tried to shame my mate into cleaning his car. it failed. he didn't notice for a couple of days, as the side he saw when he got out of his house and then parked up at work - was always the dirty side.

loving the mud flaps I'm sure they are put to good use!

RossG · 29 Oct 2010 at 17:47

Last cleaned mine at the beginning of August -_-

WhiteCobra · 29 Oct 2010 at 17:51

I try to give mine a good hand wash every 2-3 weeks and if needed a quick jetwash once a week... Every month half/2 months it'll get a polish and waxing.

POB · 29 Oct 2010 at 22:23

August, 2009 but this was not me it was the dealer.

If I cleaned it would be muddy in a day, no point.

Its like drying a Dolphin, only for it to jump back in the sea after.

Haven't washed mine in 4 weeks and I feel lazy.... Can't believe some of the lengths on here!
