Car hasnt been cleaned in a couple of weeks and i have been covering a fair few miles. Looking a bit of a state to say the least 
Ive got a feeling it is only going to get worse here on in...







But remember, it is an offence (under s.43 'Obscured registration mark' of the Vehicle Excise and Registration Act 1994) to have number plates covered in dirt to the point of being unreadable.
Oh and dont forget to clean your lights.
It only takes a minute and could save you a fine from the police.
I used a high viz to clean mine They were quite dirty tbf!

It's that time of year again now 
But that is some quite impressive dirt 
In a way it's the best time of year because when you clean it and it shines again it feels like you've made more of a difference and it's a more satisfying job.

Mine hasn't been done since the middle of october. Doesn't look that bad though!

that was when i moved it to my workshop last september.
i hadnt washed it for about a month and it then went into storage at eds hay barn in december (already filthy) it was there till last september, i think it had already had a hose down before this pic but it didn't do much, had loads of wax on it so when i finally washed it it was fine
