well... let me start off by saying that your weather is absolute madness! i moved here in october....and i live near farms, and own a white MY06 impreza so whenever i wash my car, by the time i get home its brown again.


in america i washed it once a week... but here... i may have to revise that plan.
just wondering how you guys do it.


steve

 

Once every two weeks. Polish once a month if I can.

I dont like seeing my scoob too grimey, makes it look older and more tired than it already is.

Keep it clean!

 

when i on a night shift at work so thats 2 days in every 10 .why wash it at home and not get paid when i can do it there lol.

 

I pay a poor person to clean mine once a month...

 

Steve

1) Move to Santa Barbara

or

2) Paint your car brown !

Once a week, by the way. Fraid I just let it get dirty mid-week !

Andy

 

Welcome to England my friend!
Once a week, but in this weather it all seems pointless doesnt it? If ya washed it every time it looked dirty, there would be no time for anything else! One question for you Steve, why did ya leave the USA to come here?

Sean.

 

i guess i will continue my once a week money wasting... it really looked spectacular for like 10 minutes ... maybe ill buy some stuff and wash it at home

 

for work. but make no mistake... i love it here

 

Steve,

Post a picture up of the Scoob and make a few people drool

 

twice a year if it is lucky

 

wash it once a week at work as said before why do it at home when you can get paid to do it at work

 

Where abouts were you in the states then Steve? Where's ya Hood.
I used to love it, but now i have had enuff of getting taxed to the hilt and gettin f*ck all in return! I cant even afford to buy a bigger house for my growing family, because house prices are outrageous. But i guess thats life. Happy washing Steve.....oh and Merry Christmas.

 

here is some pics from vegas... i dont know how to upload recent pics to this site like everyone else can....


Las Vegas Dry Lake Bed - NASIOC

 

im from New York, but have lived in san antonio Texas, washington state, albuqurque New mexico, and recently las vegas nevada

 

I'm with Wurzel Don't wash it for tree months after the rally, love that filthy rally slag look. I find if you haven't got enough time to do the whole car then just clean the wheels, makes it look a lot cleaner from a distance. <Viz mode on> Or just clean one half so that 50% of people think its clean <Viz mode off>

 

hahahaha that would only work with the side... front or back would just look silly

 

Liking the grill on the white 06 scoob, where is that from?

is it a prodrive edition?

 

I hardly wash mine. Maybe three/four times a year? Just add a capful of car shampoo, fill the bucket to the brim and throw it over the car (excluding the bucket ) and let the rain do the rest.

 

thats ouside las vegas... an unfortunatly, we dont have prodrive over there.... we have to beg, plead and steal(and e-bay) for all out prodrive goodies....

 

my 03 Sti is washed three times a week iand waxed once aweek n winter.
Roo is washed twice a week in summer and waxed twice a week.
I also use the Super guard/anti-stone chip {diamond bright} every six months,you probably think i am mad, but the results are amazing.
It has got polish on it now, but it has to be left on for 2 hrs, if you love your car you should look after it

 

its just so farkin cold outside to wax....

 

get your coat on and give your car a bit of tlc you will feel the warmth inside, plus whilist the wax is drying you can sit infront of the fire with a brew and use the net just like i am.

 

6 months and mt Impreza hasn't seen a sponge yet It's filthy.

 

hardly ever for mine, its also white, well, brown, MY 05


white is a nightmare.but in these months, so is every other colour TBH



do it as and when you please i would say

 

Every 4-6 weeks it might get a wash, inside maybe once or twice a year!!!!!

 

my baby sleeps inside every night.... she gets too cold outside.... she told me that.

 

the downside to having a white car - look great clean though!

 

This is what an Impreza should look like


Not cleaned for at least 6 months. Just taken the pic now.

 

I was expecting it to be dirtier

 

Yeah I know Heavy rain 'cleans' it every now and again
