Completely automated touch less car wash...?

Don't know if this has been posted, just got sent it by a mate.

I think all it needs is a huge hair dryer type device or something.  :signLOL:

Thoughts?   :indifferent:  :happy2:

Might be as it was cold - the engine I mean.

E46 BMW's used to do that, the valve on the exhaust opens when the revs go up or when warm

Also took it for a very 'gentle' drive, and OMG i want!!  :party: :drool:
