Lovely colour when its clean, but my goodness, every bit of dirt just sticks to it & stands out like a sore thumb.

I won't have a car with black paint again for this reason.
I picked my car up on a particularly ****ty North Lincolnshire day. 1st March 2016. It looked wonderful in the showroom. I drove it 25 miles to work and it was caked in grime. At that point I decided not to spend too much time keeping it clean outside. As I look out at it now, it was last washed 6 months ago and it doesn't look that bad. The bonnet is even glinting in the sun. Service is in July so it will be washed then, and of course it might rain between now and then and that might clean it a bit.........
