Aarrrgggghhhhhh ....

My MINI is filthy and I went to wash it (its 35 degrees out) and the hose is frozen!

Driving a dirty car is making me nuts. What is it about a MINI that makes it get so dirty so fast? I brought it through a hand-car-wash the other day and came out clean as a whistle ...then on the two mile drive home on relatively dry roads the car got filthy.

The MINI throws crap all over its doors, the side-view mirrors ...and the hatch ....'fuhgetaboutit !! It's like a pig that likes to roll in the mud.

Its breaking my heart to see it so dirty. Warmer weather can't come soon enough !

Hahah, reminds me of when I was travelling through Yellowstone and decided to wash my MINI with buckets of hot water from my bathtub, and the water iced up as soon as it hit the car--ended up with frozen soap water over the entire car, lol.

A heated garage is nice. =)
