Have had my D4 since September, it was sparkling then but had nothing since. It'll get its service in June and will prob be washed then, whether it needs it or not!

I live on a rough track and spent a fair bit of time at a stables. Keeping horse odours under control is all I can manage.
I near killed a neighbour last summer. I'd cleaned and polished it like a new pin, I'd just finished hosing it down and opened the window to listen to the cricket while I wiped down the water and said neighbour came down the dry dusty dirt lane like Sebastian Lobb on a rally. Ive still not all the way forgiven him for he dust bomb Narpy Grill, tinted windows, Smooth leather wheel (TLO Group buy), ACM fitted (thanks TLO), Rear door loom and Row 2 & 3 audio switch upgrade, RRS 20" wheel change, 285 Cooper LTZ's Sat Nav Mod (until I get a Faultmate upgrade), Front & Rear lamp guards. 4x4 screen now switched on - Woody32, Follow me home reverse lights - woody32, Auto release EPB - Woody32.
