Dirty Grey Roc...

Post by jc74 »

Following on the dirty theme. It seems grey isn't much better. Whoever says it hides the dirt, isn't completely correct!

If you'd bought a rising blue and lived in the north west of scotalnd, that dust isnt a problem, the cars always clean cos its constantly pressure washed by driving rain and galeforce winds, I kid you not, I've seen me get home and the wheels are filthy, then after a night of heavy rain and howling wind, the side facing the weather is spotless!! :lol:

Lol, they're building a big block of flats right opposite where I live, and also the London rain is filthy.
Also I haven't washed it for about 2 months :eek: . But to be honest there's no point since it looks most of the way like in the photo after about 2 days and a bit of rain anyway due to all the building work.

Hmm, I'll have to come to Scotland sometime to get my car washed by nature!

That's factory glass, but the GT spec has tinted rear windows as standard.
