My car is definitely a babe....i mean dust magnet!

[MrTackalakalaka]

Cleaned my car last week, spent all day doing the outside and was very happy with it.

I have only been in my car once since i cleaned it and drove about 5 miles (it was dry as well)

Woke up this morning and couldn't believe the state of my car, its depressing! haha

Time to get the hose pipe out and give it a rinse!

 

[dre_S3]

I went from a white car to my Ming blue s3 and is a nightmare to keep clean shows you how much s* it is in the air

 

[Jason.s]

Sure it didnt rain? My car was fine yesterday then it rained in the afternoon, when it stopped my car looked like yours as did everyones in the carpark. Dirty rain FTL.

 

[actualeddie]

My cars in the same condition, dirty rain! or M25 dust

 

[MrTackalakalaka]

Yeah has been raining a lot! It sucks! My car will have a colour change soon i think

 

[ScottD3]

Same thing down here in Plymouth, heard reports of it happening in Bristol and wales.

I think it happened to most of the UK.

 

[MrTackalakalaka]

this weather definitely takes the pi55!! I'm almost tempted to put my winter wheels on already

 

[kwistof]

Time to get the hose pipe out and give it a rinse!

Alright don't rub it in....we are still on the hosepipe ban here

 

[MrTackalakalaka]

really? ****** hell! this has been one wet summer!

 

[ScottD3]

Alright don't rub it in....we are still on the hosepipe ban here

Where are you?

I thought it was listed in the south west.

I still got my bucket, big yellow sponge and tesco value washing up liquid.

 

[Reesy]

On a hosepipe ban here too

Came out to the car this morning and it had the same watery dust marks all over it.

 

[s3dave]

probably sand from the Sahara desert that we get once or twice a year...

 

[kwistof]

Where are you?

Im in SE Kent (ct18 area)

Thanks though as I just remembered I need to go and buy a big yellow sponge
well 2 actually- 1 for the car and 1 for wheels! Lol
my car is also like yours OP so it's not personal

It's been mostly over cast with the odd spell off rain every now and again...23 degrees down here ATM so a quick wash later and she should be back to the babe magnet instead of dust! Haha

 

[Ste_Nova]

mine was clean as usual garaged ftw!

 

[dre_S3]

Just got home from work and my car is covered in this sh*t I spent about 5 hours cleaning and waxing the car on tuesday don't know why I bother

 

[Nick090884]

2 days ago

today

at least i am not alone lol

 

[Westy_A3T]

My car lives infront of a row of trees.
I washed it and whilest i was doing the inside i could see the sap forming on my windscreen.
Less then 24 hours later, bird **** all over the bonnet.
The frustration and pain like you are suffering is constant for me. Time to get a car cover.

 

[Darren4]

Happened to me as well, damn dirty rain. Quick detailed got it off , but the next day it was back again lol

 

[iR8V10]

Been the same in Brighton. My wife's car got covered but mine are nice in the garage! Lol!

 

[boost-addict]

i tell you what there must be alot of industrual fall out in the air, maybe even dust from the continant, becasue since tuesday when apprently we had a change of air direction causing this hot weather my car looks like this but ten times worse, same happened last year when we had the air comming up from europe/africa

 

[doublem_1]

We got it here in Bristol last night too!

 

[damo.h]

Move oop north we don't get hose pipe bans... Just plenty of rain

 

[superkarl]

Yup, same story over here, lucky my S3 was in the garage, so no dusty rain on her paintwork, not that it's clean or anything in the first place! lol

 

[Lemon S3]
