They are really common in Spain, usually have a bonus pet wash too.
Pet wash? Like this?

I’ve used a couple of hand car washes but they never did a good job.

Then when speaking to an old school friend who was CID I found out that he has never known one not be involved in either people trafficking or money laundering 😂

I use Morrisons once a week to wash underneath whatever car we were mainly using and just to get the grime off, only use the jetwash. I think it does a good job but having only ever done that I couldn’t tell if it genuinely did or not.

Dave!

Dont they cover your car in swirls or am I being too OCD?
Not that I’ve noticed.

I prefer the idea of someone chasing a chihuahua around with a pressure washer lance.

Weirdly enough one of the pubs I used to frequent in Hampstead had one of those pet washes.

The pic with three dogs in, they do not look impressed :lol:

The BP on the A20 at West Malling has pay-by-time jetwashes (the same setup as Dover I think); https://www.google.com/maps/place/bp/@5 ... d0.4062023


The BP at Brighton at the A23/A27 junction have got some new ones in that look like they have snowfoam; https://www.google.com/maps/@50.8673786 ... 384!8i8192
