Gave my car a quick exterior clean with just some tfr and a pressure wash, it was absolutely caked in salt before.

Also cleaned the underside with an attachment that sprays water directly upwards, I dont think this car is particularly prone to rusting but I still want to keep it as nice as possible.

I was suprised how brown the water was coming out from underneath, couldn't easily look at how bad it definitely cleaner now.

Doesn't help I have a 70 mile round trip commute through mostly muddy and salty A roads.

Back in the day British manufacturers used to make cars in a sort of vague baby-poo beigey-grey that looked exactly the same colour dirty as clean. No problems keeping clean because it looked exactly the same after a wash!

Second that, black is a pain to keep clean, even after washing twice there are always bits i I have missed
Good to see my old car being looked after and pampered the way it always was
Don't worry it's safe with me lol.
Mad that she's had two enthusiast-tier owners both on the same forum by chance, lucky car.
I like the idea of keeping my cars for ages so i'll be taking care of it the best I can.
