First pic was taken a few weeks ago and today it was lot lot dirtier than that :doh:
Mine was put through the car wash in November. I may give it a clean again sometime soon. There again, I may not :).
I usually put mine in the garage, but of late I've left it parked in front of the garage. It's now covered with a fine layer of saharan dust.
Have you started it up recently or been out in it? If not, you'll need to, in order to prevent a flat battery!:)

Haha - just had the AA man out this morning to replace the battery. It was down to 8V, nothing would work!
Had to call them out a couple of months ago, for a jump start. The 'health' of the battery was checked and pronounced fine. Last used the car about 10 days ago and it started up immediately, but today - no joy. The battery was a little over 4 years old so needed replacing.
I do try to let the car idle for about 15 minutes or so, every few days - but I can forget. The shops are only 15 minutes walk away and it seems unnecessary to use the car for such short distances.
had to get mine changed yesterday too.. mine was at 2 v and buggeredQuote:

Lidl is probably about 2m away, plus we also use farm shops and the Polish shop for bread and stuff, so the car is kept 'warmed up'!:)Quote:

Letting the engine idle will help the battery, but better still run it round the block a couple of times, so the brakes don't end up sticking.Quote:
