    Well, you're just greedy then for having both :p . There's a team of them working at local T's & they do a great job, a girl did mine once & it was terrible, she only did halfway down the car, I felt robbed & resolved to do it myself in future, needless to say shampoo, sponge & brush still unused :o

    There was no sign of her when I came out of the shop, so she probably wasnt even a proper washer... just happened to be going past & thought she'd scam a fiver off me :rolleyes: anyway, getting shiny new car tomorrow so will be quite happy to wash / clean that myself for .... ooh about 3 weeks probably ;)

    Five Pounds:eek: You're being robbed, they do it for £3 up here:D

    I have a car to clean - I clean it the easy way, when it rains, I go out side and rub it down with cheap washing up liquid and let the rain do the rest:rotfl:

    Clio - there is an easy way to keep your bike clean - clean it with Mer, its fab and cuts down on the muck.

    clio,clio,clio, nobody with sense buys a brand new car because the minute you drive it off the forecourt you lose about £3,000 :eek: so it's an 03 with 1 owner & only 30,000 & of course it's the street cred one with sports suspension, sports seat, spoiler, foggies & all the shibang :D . Oh god, now I sound like a 17 yr old boy , the shame of it :o:o:o

    Horace, how could you be so mean, guinea piglets are gorgeous little fluffy squeakers :D
