After the popularity of Dirtiest winter car last year, how's the epic amounts of rain and now baking sunshine being effecting your cars?

Mine looks terrible due to splashes of veg and oily hand prints all over it. Really needs proper clean but that aint happening till shes running a bit better.

Lol, I'm surprised you're not required to keep it clean as 'the face' of the company. I know some company cars have to be cleaned like every week!

They say we have to clean ours the minute you can draw a line in dirt with your finger.
