One of each....... Dirty and clean, that is.

I couldn't live with my spare wheel cover like that getmecoat
Yep, too right. It’s quite a faff to get on and off. Not been on long as only got the car a few weeks ago but never been clean enough to tackle it. It messes with me too so is near the top of my to do list.
Did Land Rover supply it like that?
No, that was professionally fitted by me :-). It arrived via a carrier, and I was just about to go on quite a long trip and wanted to get it on. Anyway, the car was washed today, and now it's all sorted. We can all breathe.

Culmination of a home (north Essex) > Pembrokeshire > Snowdonia > home trip. With a 4yr old onboard, the back seat is also encased in a mud/crumbs/raisin crust hehe

Hi,

Was shooting my Alpine yesterday for a forthcoming magazine article, the snapper wanted to make it up to the Peak District to catch the sun rise. Car was immaculate when I left home, it’s didn’t return that way :-)

Not very bad this year but the colour hides the dirt well.

Our shed-barge wearing a bit of the local countryside. I do like the filthy look, mud sprayed up the sides is preferable to the generic motorway salt and grime.

Not quite as good as some of these efforts, and hard to tell just how filthy it was in pics... All clean, inside and out now.

You know that you have a good wax/coating in your paint if it's not getting dirty!

How do so many of you drive such dirty cars yet don't use the rear wiper???
I don't get not having the best possible visibility.
What annoys me many times more however is people who remove the rear wiper altogether "coz da scene innit?"

Civic has had some pretty rough looks lately. Not ideal when the car is literally water-soluble
