Thinking I need to get a custom wrap made up in this pattern so I never even get tempted to waste time when I should be driving it, cleaning it :D

Don't worry - my black car is even worse  :(

Having owned nothing but black cars I thought that the case too, until we got the 86... :(

Looks fantastic when it is clean though! :D

to be fair, nobody washes the car in the winter. As soon as november hits you should have something on it protecting it for the winter. I havent washed it since JAE though.... lol because my dent has upset me.

I wash my car through the winter. I have to. I do a fair amount of miles, though it's absolutely filthy now five days after I washed it. It's just one of those things, I can't leave it though as the salt and grime gets caked on which isn't good for the paintwork nor the chassis. Pressure washer this weekend I think!

 

Rob got a dent at McDonald's when they all went off to see Rush during JAE.

surprisingly, white shows less then many dark colours. however, i've found a really nice car wash which they do hand wash in winter. i am happy with it...

Yeah, you'll find white stays white longer......as long as it's dry, as soon as it get's wet, then it looks bad.  So even if there's a fine layer of dirt on the car, as long as it stays dry, it'll still look pretty clean where as on a black car, you can see that fine layers of dirt straight away.

I'm hoping this is the case LOL.
