My grip is the seemingly impossible task of getting all the bits up from the carpet and slide rails that are down the sides of the front seats.
I bought the Miele set for that, is about £50 and contains the carpet roller attachment as well as very long thin pieces to get to those impossible areas. It also comes with a 3 meter hose which makes life easier.

You obviously need a Miele vacuum for it though.
I've got a set like this - much cheaper and works with virtually any vacuum cleaner

My major major irritation iswhen the car in mint, you go to use the windscreen washers, and they dribble on the bonnet leaving water marks. Boils my p1$$.

I took the fuse out for the headlight washers as that annoyed me no end! :rofl:

This is what I do to get all the suds and water from the mirrors, look at all the foam that collected in the mirrors! Otherwise when you start driving you end up with foamy water go faster stripes! :driving:
