Haha...Out of all my cars and motorbikes i've owned. I've washed them :
Motorbikes - Never.
1st car (LX Hatch) - Once for a roadworthy, & once when I
sold it.
Most recent car (Nissan Patrol) - Once for a RWC.
I honestly don't see the point...it's only gonna get dirty again... :)
However, I did spray my torana 5 times...so does that count as a wash?

Yep, this weather is really, really shit - I've still got mud on my car from when I went off at Mallala at the start of August - it's just too shit to bother washing it.
Washing your car usually removes the diesel, dirt and shit from the road so it doesn't get ingrained in the paint, which means your paint should last longer - which means that you might not have had to spray your car 5 times... |

Oh, I never sprayed it cos the paint was stuffed. First couple of times was cos I had to remove rust, next one was cos some prick at work ran into my car in the carpark, and cos I had to spray one panel, I figured I might as well do the whole car again, and the last two times, that was partly out of boredom to be honest...
