Cleaning the D2

I hate this time of year with all the salt and crud on the roads!

My poor D2 S8 hadn't been washed for 2 weeks (I drive 70+ miles a day on my commute) and you could hardly tell what colour it was.

So, a rinse with a hose (non-pressurised), a generous dousing in snow foam and a 2 bucket wash/rinse (with grit guard and a lambs wool mit) and I still had to change the water part way through! A final pressure rinse and a dry with a microfibre towel and she's looking much better! +++

There's nothing better than a properly washed D2

Stunning car, in all the best colour combinations :D

They look sunning in that shot Neil. The D2 is such an iconic Audi. Great design, engineering etc... Love them.

Nice job Jim. Black's the worse colour you can have in the winter (apart from white, possibly..) but the best for the other 3 seasons +++ - and spring is just around the corner ;)
