First decent clean in about 2 months! It was proper filthy, but a bit better now anyway
Might be getting some new wheels around Christmas too - I always thought I'd stick with 16"s but am getting more and more tempted by some 17"s now

Aarrgghh! This is the problem see!
I was dead set on keeping the 16"s, getting them refurbed (2 are mullered) and then getting some coilovers on and going -60mm (or a bit further if poss) but I just can't make my mind up

I too spent the day cleaning mine.
It has not been polished in 6 months. It has not been washed in 6 weeks (not by hand anyway).
I spent 4 hours on the fucker today and it's just started raining.
