I've checked them and they are fine as far as wear goes. As for the floor getting dusty, it's carpeted and therefore would be hoovered once a week regardless of whether the car was there or not.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone  |

Do you have a big 306-shaped tea cosy the car sits in to stop it getting chilly?________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

It sits in a 100% vacuum, and also at absolute zero to stop its molecules from moving excessively. |

I can believe Stan does has a dedicated garage hoover. But what I do not believe is that he uses it for the carpet. ________________________________________ Bianca Rallye-S 205 GTi6 on ITB's |

No, but it does sit under a nice bespoke made cotton cover which fits the car perfectly.  ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

You are in fact correct Dan, I actually use my industrial vacuum cleaner from my van to clean the carpets in the garage as it's more powerful. The vacuum cleaner in the garage is used for cleaning the interior of the car. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

You have a specific vacuum cleaner for a car which literally does not get driven? Is your dandruff really that bad that you get in it to start it once a year and it then needs hoovering out?________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |

It since stays in the garage and still has the same job title, although it hasn't been used for 18 months as that's as long as the car has not been driven for, therefore doesn't require an interior clean. ________________________________________ "Supercharged - 454.1bhp/317.5lb/ft"Peugeot 306 GTi-6 2000 (X), Moonstone |

Do you roll the hoover in and out your garage too? Don't forget to check the wheels for damage of it just sitting there!________________________________________ Cherry Rallye '99 - Sold |

Covers arent worth it imo....Maybe in this cse where its left under it a while. But the car should be IMMACULATELY clean as well as the cover. Other wise the grit and dirt will mess up the paintwork ________________________________________ Ex- Phase 3 China GTi-6 T-Reg |

It was also unrelated to his stating that "Hitler went a bit far with a few things" but that his ideas were basically sound. It has nothing to do with that. ________________________________________ Membership expiring soon, get in contact on our new little forum project. |
