Why would you want to use a presure washer on your car other than to clean your arches is beyond me.
Stop being lazy and scrub the car with a sponge.

I bought one a few months back for about 90 quid. Bought it so I could clean all the crap off the flags in my back garden but I use it for my car also. Rinse it over with jet wash, then clean with sponge and rinse again with jet wash. Works a treat

u cant actually clean a car with a pressure washer unless its at a petrol station or summut.
You should still be washing the car down with a sponge and then use the pressure washer to clean the suds off and any crap attached to the inside of the arches etc.
With regards to the cheap pressure washer they aint bad but they aint good either, the exact same pressure washer for your information is on sale at Argos £5-£10 cheaper just incase you didnt know!
