Dirty Clios

[Knuckles]

Knuckles! how could you let it get that dirty!!! although liquid yellow gets grubby very quick :/

I was gonna clean it last week when it wasn't quite that bad but I saw this thread so I put it off lol


im going to see matt at magic detail today and I thought it'd be rude to give him it in that state

Theres some go faster lines for you Knuckles

love it!

when I used to do a lot of motorway miles I got them going over my arches. Looked ace

 

[LiamR172]

Looks smart for being dirty haha. They go right up over the roof too!

Im not going to clean mine till next year now. Pointless

 

[t90_lle]

[Dr HMS Derv Destroyer]

Haha Naaa bud just been down a few back roads near where I live.

Ive been stopped already and 'advised' to wash my car, I wiped my plate an drove off. Nothing more they could do

 

[shandyruss]

Found this one from years back when I owned my first Clio and chav'd it up to the max!! Lol...

This should be titled 2012

 

[aucky]

I think I'll be entering this week!

It's been washed 2-3 times since CSS ;(

 

[DaveDreads]

I haven't washed mine at all since CSS although I have used Mantis shine and a rag,
which gives it the appearance of being clean for a week or two.

 

[MasonR27]

what did you use on your wheels mate look fairly shiny

 

[Lawro]

Mine is coming on along a treat, give it a few more days lol

 

[Dave..]

Last winter I got the car in a right state. Plate wasn't visible and looked brown rather than orange.

Got pulled up driving home after a couple of pints, dragged through all the procedures, passed breathalyser test and left looking like I'd just been arse raped and had the blood drained out of me.

Moral of the story? Save a bit of the second pint to wash down the number plate.

 

[Knuckles]

what did you use on your wheels mate look fairly shiny

Ag clean wheels, sprayed on, agitated, left to dwell, rinsed off and given a final wipe with a mf cloth

 

[danh90]

Ph1. Feeling sorry for itself

 

[jonw279]

Done 300+ miles down to darbyshire the other week, this is the worst it's been for a long time!

 

[Barnett]

Nothing compared to some that have been posted already but almost definitely the worst it's been since being in my possession.

 

[cazzy]

It's not much but I don't like it dirty lol so it was bad for me

[Advikaz]

I haven't cleaned my 200 in a week & it's pretty bad, Will put some picks up in a bit.

 

[Hixle]

Non-clio's allowed.

I've discovered that the flat grey colour of my car really doesn't hide dirt well. Lol.

A guy in marketing from work has virtually an identical 500 to yours & it's covered at the moment. Don't think he ever washes it.

 

[Hixle]

It looks ridiculous mate. I gave it a full protection detail two weekends ago and it's horrendous now, lol! I hadn't planned on cleaning it for a while but think I might cave.

I'm going to have to do mine, it's got like almost tide marks round the doors where its rained and smudged the mudd haha.

 

[Knuckles]

Mine is now caked in s**t again. Ill get pics up later.

Only washed it the other week FFs. I suppose that's what 300 odd miles does lol

 

[Lawro]

Here is a couple of snaps of mine, gave it a full protection detail 3 weeks ago and the worse part is I am due to have spinal surgery so it won't be cleaned again for at least 3 months yet..

 

[Knuckles]

Sorry to hear about the surgery. Brilliantly dirty car though :approve:

 

[Martin.]

Good effort!

 

[Lawro]

Sorry to hear about the surgery. Brilliantly dirty car though :approve:

Thanks mate, needs doing so might as well get it over with.. Just hope it's a bit more successful this time, twice in 4 years at 24 years old is not ideal lol!

 

[Knuckles]

Fuu, is it just something you want doing or is it necessary?

 

[Advikaz]

One weeks worth

 

[Lawro]

Fuu, is it just something you want doing or is it necessary?

No I don't want any more surgery but it needs doing unfortunately. I suffered a spinal trauma about 4 years ago fracturing 3 vertebra's in my spine so I had surgery done leaving me with 6 screws and a metal mesh to support the spinal column. Unfortunately one the verebra's has now collapsed and is crushing 3 discs which had led to 2 of them being ruptured. So I have to have them both removed and the metalwork replaced.
