Obsession......

[GTiPirelli]

I like to have clean alloys
Lift the 4 year old into the car to avoid dirty foot marks
rarely use the rear screen wipe
depress the clutch on startup
polish after each wash
keep the windscreen clean with Klasse all in one - acts like rainoff
clean the exhaust tips

apart from that, just a regular car user with a regular car

I clean the insides of the wheels with every wash,

Wipe the tips of the exhaust (though i found recently putting jetseal on them means the build up is much less)

Once the car has been washed and dried its not unheard of that i will stop 5 mins down the road on the next outing to wipe the drips that have come out of the door mirrors.

Have a duster and microfibre for internal cleaning in the storage by the steering wheel

Check for and remove bird crap everytime i get home from work

Towel dry the honeycombe grill after washing (each hole)

Wax at least once a month

probably loads more too... just cant think of others,

Taking the car for a spin is part of my cleaning/drying process! Dry the car, then go for a quick blast - anything up to 40mph is fine, come back and finish off the bits that have dripped out. Especially important to do this when you are going to wax/polish

Love taking the alloys off to clean them properly - but only do this maybe twice a year.

Tireshine. I have to use tireshine

I HAVE to have a clean windscreen. Even a fly splat sends the windscreen wipers and washers into a giddy fit. I must go though half the UK stock of screenwash on my own. :embarassed:

Lol I've been to the dealers three times so far - all just to get screenwash!

The first time I bought the stuff, I completely forgot to dilute it so stuck in three bottles' worth in one go! Too used to using ready-mixed stuff.

I don't use the rear wiper due to the splashback from the spoiler, the constant run annoys the hell out of me and I hate the way the boot looks after a squirt with the washer.

I don't like using the front washers wither, but thats because I have xenons and the light washers soak the whole car.

My tooth brush has plenty of life left in it still, just look at my teeth

I always turn off the engine with clutch pedal depressed.

.............i always start the car this way.

[gti guy]

ok, not gti specific, but any car I have I have to get a replica scale model of it. I have 6 to date and waiting for the gti as only had gti 2 weeks.
Doesn't stop there, they have to be the same colour as my latest wheels. Got very lucky with most regards colours but had to buy some audi blue "Moro blue" paint to match my last car, a tt.

Extra sad bit is I keep on a book shelf in our lounge with a photo albulm of the original cars.

How sad am I? Also can't wait for the black I (scale model) to arrive anyday!!!!!!
