Don't know how some of you get them so dirty!
I haven't cleaned mine since beginning of November and I've done just over 2k miles, nowhere near as bad as some of you lot after only a few hundred miles!
My white paint is looking nicotine stained all over with some lovely sections of pure filth developing. Was confident I was onto a winner but the competition is stiff!!

I wouldn't worry to much. A lot of the really good ones aren't full members so can't win the prize :wink:
I'm deliberately driving my runaround through mud and the farmers mess in the middle and sides of the lanes lol
I think motorways and gritters throwing the salt around are the only way to get it properly lagged like the Astra above!

Quite. I'm not in the north either, just don't spend all my time on motorways etc.
I live up North and ive never said oooop in my life, maybe im not North enough.

Melted iirc? 😂:wink:
Yeah, but you still talk funny lad!
Suspension? Love the lows!
Its got the b14 springs with no helpers atm
Could you have it like that with helpers? Are they crucial?

Please let me win

I'll show you how.
Salty motorways are NOT the way to do it - your car will be minging, but it will also be rotting. The best roads for getting covered in lovely freshwater mud are the ones the gritters can't get down.
I dont care if it rots lol (runaround)
The weather is still to mild for road salt at the moment tbh.
I'll contemplate buying some auto finesse products and be done with it lol

Wife was nagging me to clean her car so figured I'd be as well doing mine too. It honestly looks so different clean. I'm a bit disappointed with myself!
Hahaha thats brilliant!
You're front wheel looks so different to the back wheel once its clean! It's amazing what the dirt can do.

Getting better...
Lol, yeah, cleaned off some of the spokes altogether! It is a bit irritating actually that the willy wheels on the back looked better dirty cos the hid just how badly they need a refurb!
I think we have a winner, you grotty boy!
Yeah £12 a year still.
Well this is my official entry.[emoji4] After a lot of elbow grease the vans now clean!
Don't think I'm in the running, although still a respectful entry. Pretty sure John's won with his! I've done a John inspired shot too [emoji14]
I'd already cleaned my number plate a few days before washing it.
Wow there was so much grime even in the door shuts! Took me an age to do a decent clean. Muc off wouldn't even effect it! Had to coat the whole van in it again and use it as shampoo to clean it [emoji23] the grime was near bonded to the paint [emoji23]

No mate you have to sign up yourself every year. We didn't like the idea of making memberships a recurring payment.
The renewal pack is probably worth the £12 on its own.

Not as impressive as most of your filthy efforts, I've been using it to commute the last 2 weeks and its the dirtiest it's been in my ownership!! The rear wheels look their gunmetal grey haha.
But there wasn't a prize when this thread was started!
