I agree with the above...the road dust 'used' look with a coating of brake dust on the front wheels...so it looks driven..

Depends on what kind of dirty. Spots of mud everywhere and general dust cover no thanks. Blackened wheels by brake dust, mud streaks down the bottom half of the car and dirt around the rear screen, meh, rally-ish look.

Clean much better though. Cleaned mine for the first time in months yesterday and it's like owning a new car  :grin:

Is it wrong that I get jealous of people with really really dirty cars i.e the ones about to be pulled any min and asked to clean their plate off?

I like the dirty look...


I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
