Can anybody be bothered to take a picture of their stinking cars, if they can't be bothered to wash them.

This could be an alternative comp to photo of the month.

Wadda think "Shit heap of the month"

Washed both cars last week (the vert and the missus E46 compact) - mine was valetted at the dealer mid december when it went in for the kerbed alloy and the compact had not seen a sponge for about 5 weeks!!

Used the pressure washer in the arches and underneath - amazing how much crap was washed off them both.

Must admit, they looked that good parked up nice and clean, I felt a pang of guilt for lettin' em get into that state in the first place

Missus car is dirty again, but mine is still clean (only done short local journeys this week and we have had NO snow!!)

Looks beautifull Carlos,that colour is very nice any Bm dark colour is its just that i have always gone for dark Carbon black,black,sparkling Graphite etc but they are such a B$£%^&D to keep clean and after having some silver works vans which almost always look clean i decided that it was time for a change no regrets so far

Thanks Squeeze!!

She is nightmare to look right, and once cleaned and dry looks Gorgeous, but gets dirty so quickly hence the wash and dry every two days

Carbon Black is the same

Im sure your silverstone II will be much easier to clean and is such an AWESOME colour, whether it be on an M3, M5 or M6.. I would also love to see a E46 M3 painted in that colour but not many people spray there M3 lol do they.

Hi Carlos

Is this your holiday pad where the dxb is pictured. Did you have a nice break with your miswah after your hard work at xmas?

Last washed my car at the weekend but mainly to stop the wheels getting pitted and looking rubbish.

Nice to see you're back again, Carslosh.

Oh, did you ever get Trackwah fitted ?

It's just that I thought I saw the DXB meandering its way around the canals around Harlow, this morning, beautifully clean, however.

All the best.

I think about 22nd december
It's very dirty on the roads around here (snow slush and salt) and the car gets dirty in like 1km, but I do know it needs some lovin'
The SG looks like a light grey or some urban camo, it just breaks my heart...

Just waiting for some detailing supplies and then I'll wash it before I leave for the states.
