Re: WillGP's Grey Grande - "Douglas"

any way of keeping my car clean during the winter ! Seeing it on a morning makes me wanna cry!

Re: WillGP's Grey Grande - "Douglas"

Come late September I give up cleaning my car (I commute sixty miles a day so it will be dirty again 24 hours later) then I have a mental all day cleaning session when the sun decides to reappear in the spring. I wouldn't recommend that though

But seriously I don't know how people do it. It gets far too cold to give it a good clean. I would also like to hear people's input on this

Re: WillGP's Grey Grande - "Douglas"

I must admit during the winter I can be seen on a weekend cleaning my car with my woolly hat and wellies together with my thermals and waterproofs and I just grin and bear the cold . I even cleaned my car last year whilst there was snow on the ground LOL. (Sad I know but I bet there are others)

I must confess I do have OCD when it comes to having my car clean I couldn't bear to get in or drive about in a dirty car

Is it worth me removing my door pillar vinyl ?

No, looks much better with it there, we took ours off and got it painted cos the vinyl gets tacky and rubbish

Re: WillGP's Grey Grande - "Douglas"

I wash mine by hand myself and take it to the Turkish guys in the Winter to do it for a fiver and they do a good enough job for the winter and rain.

Also mate how much has all of this upped your insurance. I've got all these minor mods planned like yours but worried about the insurance increasing loads

I'm thinking of removing mine and replacing it with either glossy vinyl or carbon fibre effect vinyl
