Cleaning cars is one thing I'm happy to avoid

Seems a bit stupid really with all this shite weather...just wet & muddy everywhere:(

i agree with you neil. Whenever i clean my car it gets dirty in a day due to driving to work down country lanes.

Pointless and waste of time doing it.

It would be worthwhile if it just stayed dry for more longer than one day

Even when it is dry you get s**t loads of bugs/moths especially at night which make a real mess of your bumper etc:(

i agree on the weath point, but i also enjoy it, also get to see all the defects and things wrong if you spend time closly looking at a object so ppl who clean there cars generally notice things alot quicker.

I love cleaning my car and always like to have a clean car but with this unpredictable weather i just havent bothered in the last month, im waiting for a dry spell to come and then it will be worthwhile!

Same here, I dont like the cleaning part but I love the results.

Not cleaned mine in three weeks due to crap weather, there is just no point. As soon as weather clears up ill be waxing away. :p

I like having a clean car and always give it a quick wash once a week.

I clean mine on sat mornings so I've got a clean car for the weekend as I know once I get to work on monday after the motorway and the lanes it will be dirty.

The problem is the missus moans about her car then and I end up cleaning both every week.
 
I hate cleaning my car, and put it off. But normally wash it about 6 times a year. It's only gonna get dirty again. Only time I will wash it straight away is if it is covered in road salt.

Haven't washed mine for weeks due to cr*p weather. It's not the most fun i could have, but love it when it's clean and sparkly :D
I feel for all the people with white wheels......

Its worth cleaning it for those five minutes when everything feels right

I hate cleaning it but love standing back after 3 hours and thinking 'Yeah that looks clean'

Then thinking 'Awww shizzle, missed a bit'

The VTS has come up spanking though, after her first clean! Love it!

I quite like cleaning cars as I think with there is quite a bit of satisfaction to be had when you stand back and admire the job you've done.
