As it's a great day in bonnie Scotland thought I would wash a few 1000 miles of road dirt off too before the MOT tomorrow.

Photos of that car always make me drool, Brian. The D2 is, IMHO, a truly beautiful car but, if I were ever to be tempted away, then an RS6 estate (in that very same colour) would be high on my list.

....here's my poor/half-hearted attempt to compete with Brian's superior washing skills: Herman snapped quickly on my 'phone, one week on from a quick wash, and five minutes on from getting his Ronin showshoes fitted.
Better pics to follow, possibly, after the weekend ![]()

I always wash any car before an MOT, I see it as a courtesy to the tester, the very least one can do, and preferably wash it the day before not 5 minutes before going in so that it has time to dry properly and not drip all over him lol
