I think this guy sees himself as some sort of working class hero.
The brand of car represents all that is ordinary working class and suburban, and the fixation with triumphal manual labour some sort of life-style substitute.

I'm sure the result will attract the finger of silent envy from the feckless of an inner city estate, but surely the more intelligent and enlightened who have a life will just quietly chuckle.

And another thing - Why is the guy using mineral water? Surely the name gives it away?

Distilled water is the only choice if you want to be a c0ck.

C0CK works for me, try chasing the water drying on a black car when the sun is scorching down. Lots of watermarks left behind. De-ionised water means I don't need to dry the car

I know - cos I have used distilled water too

But he is still in the wrong for using mineral water which was my main point
