Nice going Jon,

I did the same thing...only went a month between cleanings though.
Then it rained overnight and it's still raining here.


Noticed it's foggy where you are

I love dirty mini's, especially when the wheels are caked in black brake dust & you can't see the rear number plate ...mmmm. Washed mine 3 times in the past year (3rd wash was done by dealer after it's 1st MOT (Nov 05) - gutted took me 6 months to get it how i like it) For those of you who think i don't care, i do - very much so, when i have washed it, it gets 2 coats of wax plus a top coat seal. - Just like it dirty!!! Does anybody agree?
