Default Washing it

Time for first S2000 wash. I saw a Saab convertible top ruined by a drive-thru car wash once. Yet I see many people use drive-thrus for their convertibles.

Stupid to save time with a drive-thru?

I never trust a car wash - espescially those drive thru ones with brushes. That is just goiung to ruin your paintwork in my opinion.

The other thing is that when you wash the car yourself, it is also the perfect time to do other things like check tyre wear, oil levels and water levels.
