The Winter Mucky Motor Thread 2010

[bob1179]

Well, I haven't seen one of these yet this year so I thought I should kick off the 2010 mucky motor thread with my rather grubby Skoda.





I'd like to point out I never, ever wash my car.

So else, has a reasonably dirty car to show off (we should be proud)?

[5potTurbo]

That's a good effort for a thread starter. I'm not sure I could ever let my car get that dirty.

Looks like your passenger's coat or strides have "cleaned" a part of the rear door for you.

I don't think I've washed my car since last winter, or indeed the one before that, but it never seems to get THAT dirty.

Working in russia is cheating

I'll take a pic of mine later this week

....looks like you might have got your tousers covered in shoite when either you exited or entered your car, hope they were not beige or light coloured. Is it me or do those wheels look exceedingly small and the ride height exceedingly high?

I used to live in CZ and in the winter they used to cover the roads in old ash, is it the same in Russia.....my car always looked filthy....yours is clean in comparison.

I think it's just because I'm parked on uneven ground, the wheels do look a bit dainty though don't they?

They don't seem to put anything on the roads here, it gets cold and freezes and you have to take your chances! Though last winter I did see a chap shovelling salt onto some bits of raod near town. I think that may have been a one off.

As for the passenger side smear, not sure who did that. It has however left an unsightly clean mark on my car!

The M5 looks really tasty all grubby like that!

Some cars suit being dirty.

So do I, but I'm not really sure why.

None from this year yet, the car hasn't really moved in weeks, bike is nice and mucky though.

Here's one from the end of last year at the MBW Sunday Service...

me too! For some reason I find myself paying quite a lot of attention to how dirty cars are... (I find it particularly impressive seeing a 60-plate car utterly FILTHY - how do they manage to coat a car in so much ste so quickly?!)

My neighbour has only had her 60 plate Meriva since Monday and it is filthy...like really filthy as if it has a st magnet as optional extra....she has only been 100 local miles this week...and we only had a dust of snow last night....

[maniac0796]

Mines lovely and filthy at the moment. Lots of salt aswell though

Anyone else find cars look alot meaner/better when they're filthy?
