Bristolhibby Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Rarely. Especially in the winter. Also I live mid terrace and don't have an outside tap. Getting a new car in two weeks, so no danger I will be washing my car before then. J Edited February 25, 2016 by Bristolhibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jimstroma Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 I have a neighbour who is constantly washing his 3 cars also. He wouldn't trust the car wash. I take my car to the car wash once a week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Return of Yermaw Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 (edited) Our dug loves nothing better than sitting in the back seat with his head hanging out the window. I must admit it makes me laugh watching his slobbering face in the wing mirrors. However the back seat, although covered with a dog blanket, is full of dog hair and is filthy. I therefore get the car cleaned inside and out every 2-3 weeks or so. But it is only clean for a few days. The faces of the normally friendly Polish guys who run the business drop when I now approach - they must think I capture and kill yetis in my back seat.

kumnio Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Very rarely, took delivery of my car in November, and it's needing it now sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted February 25, 2016 Share Posted February 25, 2016 Depends really. Got a mini-valet the other day (£10 in Rutherglen), as it's a company car, and will be driving the boss around next week. Probably get it cleaned every 6-8 weeks. Hoovered maybe 2-3 times a year. Should probably do that more, as I eat my lunch in it, get all the rubber cancer balls from football in it etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A friend of mine worked for Mercedes, he got a new car every 3-4 months and was ordering cars 3 in advance. It was a standing joke that he got a new car when the old one got dirty.

Angus_Young Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Gutted mine inside and out a couple of nights ago. We have a power washer at work so will use that once a week maybe. Tbh that's the only reason, it would probably go weeks otherwise. For the inside I think that's only the second time I've cleaned it since I got it, 10 months ago.

Huddersfield Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Since when did cars need washing? My neighbour washes all 3 cars on his drive religiously every weekend. Washes, polishes, waxes, hoovers. There's times I can head off to the pub, go to the football, come home & he's still at it. Total waste of breathing time. I'd say mine gets hosed down & hoovered once every 6-9 months (usually when Mrs. Hudds starts complaining that it stinks), and I reckon that's pampering it.

I'm more on your wavelength. i value my time too much, you can go to a car wash and have a squad of Eastern Europeans do it in 20 minutes inside and out for a tenner.

wanderer Posted February 26, 2016 Share Posted February 26, 2016 Depends..... summer time once a week (depending on the weather).... winter time do not bother until the Mrs starts kicking up about it (and usually have to do it again the following week as it gets filthy again). Most the time I just wait for the boss to clean his car at work when he gets one of the welding apprentices to do it on a Friday afternoon, so I just jump in and say "since you are washing the boss's......"
