I feel ill every time I look at the big dirty brown spots dotted all over my car after it rains, almost to the point that I don't want to drive my car to my friend's house for lunch. "Babe we should totally take your car today," I will say to my partner.
Confessions aside, you can't deny that stepping into a clean car is about as exciting as the first time you drive your car away from the dealer and it still has that new car smell.
Mirror Image were the closest car wash to where I was on a Monday afternoon where I couldn't stand driving around in filth any longer.
It is a small self-service car wash with only 3 bays and 2 baths for dog washing. I was impressed by the coin change machine and the fact that $1 got me 1:30 mins for each cycle. The usual characters were available, rinse, hot-rinse, pre-soak, bubble wash, etc etc but again you only need to pre-rinse, bubble and high pressure rinse to clean the car, costing me $4 - bargain.
Only challenge here is that they don't have those cool air dryers that On The Run have which is my favourite gadget of them all. But if you're happy driving off in a wet car then this place is as good and convenient as any! read more
