I like keeping my cars clean, which is difficult when the company carpark is surrounded by ash lagoons and a coal plant. But I still expect the inside to be spotless! |

Back in the 90's I was a coach driver for a large private (then) company in Gillingham, Kent. They were very concious on image which I think made me worse to be honest but even if the roads were wet you had to wash the coach before it left the yard so the only dirt on it was the journey to the pick up. Oh & there was no coach wash, it was a hose pipe & soft brush on a pole then you had to blade it off afterwards to stop it from staining.

Funnily enough valeter my dad used to drive for a coach firm in the 1960's long since folded the last of the family died about a month ago , anyway my dad was taught by Ron (the owner) that he may have the oldest bus but keep it clean and polished and it looks just as good as the newer ones.

I love that some people here are passionate about their cars and treat them real well and enjoy cleaning and upgrading them etc. I think it's fair to say for some their car is much more than a functional thing, it's a fun hobby too.

As I thought, this thread has legs - To paraphrase an old saying " You can say what you like about my wife but don't you dare criticise my car"
