Different type of muck on this Clio...





Super gross...
You know, I didn't realise this was "a thing", but this Civic seems to be trying to grow too...

Starting to develop a nice protective crust smile

And yes, my alloys are completely knackered.

It’s a daily thing down here, funnily enough I’ve just driven down that very road again in my truck for work and it’s very slippery
Lots of country lanes get like that

Lights and plate clean. As it should be. Top effort

Don't usually let it get this bad but the last week around rural Reading/Basingstoke has been grim! Colour stays particularly clean smile

Spotted this M3 today. No need to obscure the plate.

Fairly meagre effort compared to some on here, but not sure I can take it much longer.

Finally I feel I have an entry for this thread. Its been building for a while, but took some extra back roads on the commute yesterday and this was the result.
(I've just realised how bad the numberplate looks! It looks better in real life, but I will sort it tomorrow)

I did a big clean of the interior on mine, and then decided that I should really put the effort in and give the outside a going over. Pressure washer did most of the work fortunately. I even did a very Detailingworld before and after shot. Crazy. That's two weeks of buildup, I last cleaned it on the 11th.

This is after a week on cornish B roads going to work and back.
I’ll jet wash it at work tonight, it will be dirty by the time I get home again with roads looking like this and worse!

This is 15 miles after it was jet washed rolleyes

My new (to me) winter daily. This audi is possibly the muckiest car I've owned, I don't understand how it picks up so much filth!

Classic "flat ass shape" creates low air at the rear, perfect for sticking dirt to back of the car, many estates are awful for it.

Just aerodynamics at play smile My E91 like the post above has always got a dirty bum!

Last cleaned about 9 or 10 weeks ago (2750 miles ago) which isn't bad going since it didn't move for 2 weeks over Christmas. But I gave in and cleaned it not long after I took the pictures. (Pictures taken in London this morning, cleaned it when I got home).

Trouble is, it will look the same again by next Sunday. It was probably the dirtiest its been in the last seven years I've owned it, I use to live in London, but I moved down to Sussex about six months ago. It was a piece of piss to keep it clean in London, but down here its covered it crap in a day. I'm hoping the fusso coat on underneath is helping a bit.

That said, silver seems to hide the dirt well.
