We never checked the tailpipe.....AA's is very clean....looked polished to me.....but he told me he only wipes it over......this could have been the winning decider for AA  :y

That's a bit harsh Gary.  AA's car is 18m older than mine, so mine should look cleaner - on that note I hand the baton back to AA who should be applauded for his diligence and attention to detail  [smiley=bath.gif]

Not to mention the disgraceful dents and cracked paintwork on AA's rear bumper :( ;)

I think Markie won the award for the dirtiest bodywork, despite washing it before coming (obviously with his eyes shut ;D)
