After a week on a wheatbelt farm, no car stays clean... can't even get to the farm without getting it dirty! Dirt's good anyway! Shouldve seen it after the second week. I did wash it after!

Your car after a thorough wash.

That bottom right one is my old car on a ferry, got a strange look as I drove it on with Chris De Burgh's "Don't Pay The Ferryman" cranked up.

Just for the "proof" photo, as that one isn't very good, here she is lined up ready to go on the ferry, sorry haven't got any better than these of that trip.


Your car with an aviation-themed background

Since nobody else had a suitable picture...

If it counts,
