 I got the same reaction when I kept going in for tokens to clean my Series after a bit of off roading - used 3 tokens and left four piles of mud in the cleaning bay  |

There is a garage near to me that you can feed the jet wash with pound coins but i have noticed over the last few visits that the amount of water has been restricted
I always clean the underside first then give the body work a blast and then have to tidy it up at home. Other than that its tokens or you have to buy a wash program which is a fat load of use when all you want is lots of water. I used to wait until the evening and sneek in undercover of darkness so they could not see how dirty it was:whistle: Mark |

Pressure washers are cheap.
Why not buy your own? |

Maybe they've just had enough of unblocking drains. And yeah, restricting water....how very old fashioned, I mean it's free innit? Comes out the sky and all that.  |

Which is exactly the reason why some places won't entertain off road vehicles which are plastered in mud Steve.

The garage at the Solstice Services on the A303 has specially enlarged 'mud tanks'.
They knew they'd get plenty of offroaders straight in from the Plain.  |

I did, but it's not much use if you move into a temporary house with no way of hooking it up Russell
