Anyhow, after a winter drive today mine got cleaned, blow dried with hot air including the discs and pads

Note the shirts which I think look good on a black car

Do you have one of those car hair dryers Nick. How long does it take to dry?

Yes I have the one below. I use it on max with heat and it takes about 15 mins to dry the car. The car is ceramic coated so the water blows off it easily. It would take longer without the ceramic.

I often find I have to do some areas several times as the powerful blast of air can spray droplets onto bits you have done.

I bought it because I wanted to minimise swirl marks on black paint but as we are in a hard water area I can’t just let the water dry naturally

Very nice, but you know this is the same thing for 1/3 of the price:

And you of all people know that you can still travel from A to B in some thing 1/3 of the price of a ferrari in style wink
Also a cheap quartz watch will also tell more acurate time than my Longines automatic.

Certainly similar, but let’s face it an MR2 does the same as an old Ferrari for a 10th of the price wink

In reality, I wasn’t sure the hose would be long enough on the dog ones

I have absolutely no clue of the point you're trying to make. None.

Its quite simple really. You pointed out that the dryer you posted was 1/3 the cost and did the same job.
I was pointing out that a car 1/3 the cost of a ferrari would do the same job. Also that a cheap quartz watch would tell better time than an expensive watch. And still we go for the most expensive option.
There, even a 5 year old can understand that wink

You see an electric dryer as something worth paying over the odds for due to brand/fashion? Weird.

It’s not the same, it’s almost half the power and the hose is half the length.

I am now recalling the reasons why I discounted the pet ones when I was buying.

Porsche owners, is that paint to sample?😄
