Yeah i can totally relate to that i was always guilty of just always using an Automated car wash on my cars but i had a very shiny black car & it always did the trick. Don't think that's an option any longer with the roof bars.
Monkey Tree jetwash is another handy location.

I see you're nr Newquay
No one warned me I needed to check for wayward beer cans when buying a Landy!I recently purchased a 04 Freelander TD4 sport premium.
The ad stated impeccable, 85k mileage. Fully stamped up to date service history. New Mot etc etc. Wouldn't budge on the price so surely it couldn't be that terrible.
Got it home (330 miles away) to find a beer can in place of a small 100mm ish hose on the front left of the engine & covered in tin foil with the original hose split down the middle then wrapped around the foil (essentially disguising it)
Not only that but hideous dirty black oil splattered everywhere. Clearly NOT recently serviced at all.
Needless to say I'm mortified. This little thing was my dream car in the sense of what I can actually afford & I waited an age to get it
Scrap job? It drives fine engine sounds quiet actually not rattles etc.
Forgive the essay I'm dying inside & apologies again for the wall of text
Have you had a look at the exhaust yet?No one warned me I needed to check for wayward beer cans when buying a Landy!
Not sure I want to given the post title!! Ignorance is bliss yeah?

I clean my wheels with auto glym car wash and a big tooth brush with soft bristles. Once a year I take the wheels oft to clean behind their ears as the brake dust builds up and I've seen it attack wheels before. Should really do it more often.
I use Auto-Glym car wash, then polish with Auto-Glym Super Resin Polish. I try to do the wheels monthly and polish the car paint annually with the same stuff.
