Today's clean car

:thumbup:

Well, that should be Saturdays clean car, when it came back from the bodyshop... I never wash the car, so it hasn't been this clean, or this integral, in years :) It is already dirty again from two days driving in the muddy lanes around here :)

Attachment 6201 Attachment 6202

Spotted some dust on the dashboard (wipes finger clean):p

Is that a diesel or petrol Hann?

Diesel Steve... good little car... Old, and now done 90.000miles, but still a good car... Managed to save it from the breakers yard twice the last 3 years, as rude blokes in towny 4x4's keep driving into it :(

I happily fitts 3 bikes in the back, as well as 3 people :)

It needs a new cambelt though :-(

After one of them as a second car so I can get up the lakes more, my mate Crumblydown has one, done over 100,000m and still going strong, the car that is, not Crumblydown, he's still going strong but I don't know his mileage?

LOL re Crumbly :)

2 lt HDi, should be good for another 50.000:) If it doesn't get smashed to smithereens before that is...

Oh I really must wash my car :o

What do you do to your cars Hann? A 2.0 HDi, sensibly driven and serviced, should be good for 300,000 miles, surely? It's what I'm looking to get out of my Peugeot Expert 2.0 HDi van.

I don't do anything with them other than drive them... it is *them* that do unspeakable things to my poor car :w00t:

I am treating it to a new cambelt tomorrow and some new brake fluid, so it should do me another 90k at least :)

Bits of plastic have a tendency to fall off it though :rolleyes::thunbdown:

We have a Fiat Scudo 2lt JTD van and it has done about 250.000 and still going strong!

Missus has a little 206HDi, had Peugeot deisels for years (used to have the Estates, till the Missus forgot to put the handbrake on :o) they keep going for ever - so long as you don't wash them, that's what ruins them and makes other drivers crash into them.

Are you hinting it is the dirt that holds them together?
