Cars generally seem to stay cleaner for longer in Oz, compared with the UK. I think its the lack of rain. Jules

It's not the rain, we get enough of it here most years. Most of us drive petrol cars which are a lot cleaner! Procrastination, mankind's greatest labour saving device!

Since our cars are partly Ford, well I have a very nice Ford Ecoboost engine. Maybe Stuartc could give us the heads up on this mod for the Freelander!

Mad you are all mad

Washed my car once, realised just how badly scratched it was, and just had to get rid.
Imo drive through car wash once a week, and the local guys do a wash, polish and valet every month. Tangiers Orange - gone, missing her
