Woah, things aren't always what they seem! I live under a canopy of trees and my 760 gets absolutely splattered by pigeons in just one night. My 940 is parked a bit away from the trees and that gets quite splattered in just one night. We've still got a hose pipe on here in the Thames Valley and even if we didn't have I can't clean two cars more than once a week due to physical limitations (illness) let alone time restrictions and I couldn't afford a car wash at £6 every day, £42 a week, that doesn't shift the poo anyway. Many people who live out in the sticks have this problem, it doesn't mean they don't care about their cars. I had to deliberately buy my 940 checking out the paint code first to make sure it's of the type that is unphased by bird poo
