Gave it a long overdue bath!

Argh!  I wish you'd stop posting photos of what must be the most immaculate Golf in the history of Golfs ever, ever, ever!

I've got a painful shoulder at the moment (rotator cuff tendonitis, which is about as much fun as it sounds), and can just about manage to wash mine.  I use my BigBoi dryer as it's less of a pain in the shoulder to dry it off.  Would you mind coming round and doing it properly for me, Rebecca?

Dropped it off for 3rd service (inc brake fluid); air con service and MOT. Haldex service soon at specialist place.
 
In prep: Pedal box switched off (boo!), headlight washers etc temp re-enabled with obdeleven. Do not wash signs in place.  Work sheet already pre-scrawled with “DO NOT WASH” as Gemma the service lady knows me well.
 
Lets hope they don’t use it as a demo!  :shocked:  :grin:

That's a very generous car park at your dealers. Mine has about half a dozen spaces which oddly enough, are generally taken :angry: And being positioned next to a roundabout and a main road there's no street parking...

It is a sizeable car park and right adjacent to where they clean the cars. :shocked:  That’s the bit of the premises my car never goes!   :grin:

Yep!  3 years on 30th Sept!  Time flies when you have a great car!
