What are you doing to make it fog up a lot??? ;)
Keeping it clean is the best bet. I polished the inside with glass polish and that was it. The screen will fog up due to the current freezing weather, not a lot you can do about that matey.
Re polish the windscreen lad.
Wash car, dry, tape up rubbers and plastics once fully dry, polish with SRP or AG Glass Polish.
I waxed it when it was detailed, but dependant on conditions/chemicals used to wash it, this may have vanished by now.
Putting the towels in the dryer ruins them lad :( it de-charges the microfibre. The idea is that the charged "hooks" of the MF lift the water and polish off the paint, to stop scratches.
MF still need to be rung out after using it on half of the car. Buying a couple of towels is never a bad...
What cool factor??

I am a detailer. The R8, Aston, RS6 and RS4...
Basically this.
If you wanted two seats (I know it has four, I am being facetious), buy a sporty little number.
If you wanted a city car, buy a bike/cycle.
If you wanted a car, at least get something people won't accidentally step on when crossing the roads of London!
Yeah, but not if he is doing it 50%. Which if he is not machining it, he is!!
All the above (to the OP) is exactly what you should be using. But not for a 4x4. And not if you are not going to prep the paint work. All that I listed will cost you a fraction of the above (wax is £40).
just basics for cleaning the paint up and sealing - Simple SRP and EGP from AutoGlym.
what stuff to use on the tyres - Megs endurance gel
best stuff to clean the windows with - AutoGlym glass polish
best way to clean arches etc - Take the wheels off and scrub with a

Mine hasn't done the usualy hairline cracks from the charge port, but three small ones going outwards from the bottom screws.
