Not washed since it’s service at the beginning of October (garage washed it), done about 3k miles since, through snow, some flooded roads, and today a cross country journey to see my Grandma. I think the red hides the dirt quite well, I did have to stop at services today to clean the side windows and mirrors.

I might be doing it wrong. 2000 mile round trip in a couple of weeks though to the Alps, will have to post a comparison picture.

I live in the sticks, in a lovely quiet area surrounded by fields. The downside is that this is one day after being washed.
Not sure why I bothered really!

You joke, despite not exactly being in the most upmarket part of the midlands, another neighbour on our shared development of 4 houses has a 718 Cayman GT4, house adjacent has an F-Pace SVR and an XKR-S, next one along has a 991 GTS, it’s not a quiet area rofl

The other half has been using my Saab convertible while her car has some bits sorted, daily school run combined with rural roads....





I managed to wash it yesterday so at least it looks nice now! For how long, we'll see haha.

Not even remotely close to some of the filth that has been achieved on this thread.. but definitely the dirtiest it's been with me in the year I've had it.

My Fiesta doesn't really do many miles but it's beginning to show the dirt.

I have no idea how this has got like this, it was clean a moment ago. The wife must have got lost in the country lanes, yes, that's probably the answer.
