It is black after all!

After a few weeks in the cleaning wilderness due to moving house, I finally got round to cleaning the old girl. Why can't black look like this all the time?




How long will it last this time?

Snow is forcast for the weekend, so glare at it now before it gets dirty again.

Thanks for the comments guys. Considering the sweat on my brow today from cleaning the car, snow seems quite unbelievable really.

Yes mannyo, a before pic was in order, but the excitement of cleaning the car took over.

That's colour it was! It's amazing how smart black can look when clean, but how scruffy it looks after a short while on the road.

The Mk1 Octavia in black is still the best looking Skoda.
