Dirty Cars Winter 19/20

Those wheels and tyres look comically undersized on that.
Tyres are undersized yeah. Got the winters on at the mo which cropped up at £100 for all four new as the profile was lower than standard. Wheels are 19’s but tbh it’s a daily dog that pulls things out fields, carries vermin... sorry children daily , and is driven by a wife who really does not give a f
k 
Actually from that angle it does make the already daft wheel gap look outrageously stupid !

OK my best effort for this year
I last washed the car on the 7th November 2019 when I took the alloys off and stuck the winters on
This is how it looked earlier
And as I've given in and that's the best that I could do (I blame all the rain we've had) I've cleaned it
Considered swapping the winters off and putting the normal wheels and tyres back on but I don't think winter has finished with us yet
The neighbours car gets this dirty in a week

My two as dirty as they have been this year. The colours help hide the dirt as they looked worse in person!
Mine doesn't even get driven in rain!!
No wonder the MOT history on this one is so dire!
In the U.K. with this weather it’s to be expected and it’s a relatively high mile example now. Was my daily for the first 3 years of ownership.

Look up LK03VYG. Minimal investment from me to get it through. They didn’t even pick the windscreen up this time.
Managed to get a reasonable pic of my car looking a bit shabby. Pleased to have found somewhere I don't need to feel ashamed about my habit of never washing it.
Felt like it actually looked a bit grimmer in real life? - but they say the camera never lies, so maybe it wasn't actually that bad.

I don't mind how it looks, and I might switch over permanently. My commute is quite rough on the car, and I suspect it won't be long before my first knackered wheel. The staggered OEM alloys are expensive to buy new from BMW, and buying used ones is a faff, but steel wheels are the same all round, and £50 each. The cheaper tyres are a bonus, too.
