    Washed, vacuumed, cleaned all inside panels just now. I freaking love not having many passengers in my car. Passengers side and rear seat almost as clean as it came out of factory :D.

    On the sad note: car is covered in freaking tar :(. Will need to look in to some sort of solution for that.

    In my experience, any imported car I've bought or been in has been maintained better than most Irish cars could dream of.
