    Every Friday evening. 25 minutes has the car washed and dried and tyres dressed. Might give the wheels a wipe down mid week.

    25 mins for the whole car?! I'd spend that on the wheels/tyres/arches alone :o

    Do frig all miles and the car is always clean. I know you guys like to go to town with snowfoam and power washers, two bucket wash for me gets 90% results in 20% of the time. ;)

    Saturday is usually my day. At this time of the year it's whenever there is a Sat I can do it, other than that the cars get a wash, hoover and trim polish every week. The more often you do it the less time and easier it is is my motto.

    I don't know many that do it here
    That is unbelievabley true it's Luke ritual in the UK,just look at the difference of a 10year old car on donedeal then try eBay UK the difference is huge.
    They maintain cars better too.

    Got her washed, waxed, and dried over lunch today - not a bad job for €15

    Seems to be a bit of a posh spot though (just down from Sandyford/Dundrum in a former petrol station) - there was 2 new-ish Range Rovers, a Bentley, SL350, CL500, vintage Rover and a new white A4 all in the queue as well.

    Need to hoover her out now too but I will do that tomorrow afternoon if the weather holds and I get home a little earlier.

    Every second day, sometimes every day depending on road conditions.

    I drive for a living, I wouldn't live in squalor and I damn sure wouldn't work in it.

    Think he could be talking about the one in Churchtown on the road from Mcgowans to the river dodder.
    There's an old petrol station (jet I think) that often has rare or old cars parked up outside.

    Saw a Countach (most likely the replica that I've seen floating around on the odd occasion) and a Corniche last Sunday.
