Spend £200,000 on your supercar then take it to the £5 a time hand car wash
![]() ![]() Saw it near Woking while working there the other day. 'MCL 1' is McLaren's plate so more than likely a press car and the journalist returning it clean!

I have been guilty of the same sin over the last year with the 8, she lives outside day to day, been subjected to the 5 quid splash and dash more times than I care to remember, paints been jetted off the gutter trim as a result and to add insult to injury I dropped a piece of wood on the back bumper taking the paint off.
Hopefully after winter passes I will get the paintwork sorted and start treating her like a princess again instead of a whore.

I'll only ever put mine through a £5 wash these days if I take it to the single wash shop in Manchester that I trust, and they have clear instructions on how to do it, are provided with the woollen mitt provided by me, and are watched by me whilst they're doing it.
![]() And I'll only do that in exceptional circumstances - otherwise the cost of the annual detail is a bit of a waste of money... ![]() Last edited by tintin; 11th October 2014 at 03:34 PM. Reason: typos... |
