I've been letting the downpours that we have been having in recent times clean mine - I call it doing my bit for the environment- some may call it pure laziness!

Re: Car Wash
We're not allowed to wash our cars ourselves unless we have tank or bore water. Water restrictions! We're still desperately short of water in Melbourne.
Car washes are allowed to operate, but there's a lot of dirty cars running about. I put my beloved Celica through a brush-type car wash and all the lacquer started to peel off the spoiler. So unless there is a laser-wash nearby, my car's going dirty.

Some mistakes are too much fun
to only make once.

Re: Car Wash
Most of the neighbours on our Drive wash their own cars including my husband , and they wash them on the road side so they don't mess their drives up.
