We don't have tens of thousands of square miles to play in over here, there are 56 million of us squashed onto this little island - our cars have to be smaller and cleaner!

Well I'm thinking of taking it up to sainsburys at hedge end.
They've got a new car wash which drags your car through, then it gets beaten with big thick heavy strips of j-cloth, but before all that a gorgeous young black haired woman beats your car all over with a soapy broom.

Re: What car do you drive now?
I only go to carwashes in the winter. You can't even hose your car down at home because the water to the outside is shut off. And if you do, the water will freeze on contact with the car. 20 below freezes a lot of things.
Other than that, I like washing my car. With my hands, mind you... None of this modern crap.

That's a really good wash they've got there Xac.... top of the range jobby.
I'm still not sure how a new car's paint would be though... I've seen a few cars get scratched by the brushes.
