Was in B+Q a few day's ago and they had most of the pressure washers half price KARCHER,BOSCH etc.

Ive got the Bosch Aquatak CLIC (half price, i think it was £125) which is really good. The hose and power lead winds into the unit so it's nice and tidy and doesn't take up much space in the shed.

Ive got a KARCHER and must say there really good quality pressure washers.At the end of the day you get what you pay but I would stay clear of the cheaper "no name" washers.Just my opinion.My KARCHER works really well with the snow foam lances etc too.

Im sure it will do the same as a larger pressure washer maybe not as much pressure but if its only to wash your car then you really dont want too much pressure do you? If your gunna be using snow foam and a mixer bottle lance then Im not sure if it requires a mininum pressure but for standard washing I think it would do the job.
