There's no doubt a clean car interior is a better place to be than one covered in grot and grime, but making sure you keep it that way will not only help preserve your car’s residual value, but also make it easier to sell on when the time comes.
Dust, animal hair and food debris attack the seats and trim, while carpets can be worn out before their time under the regular onslaught from mud, grit and leaves.
The easiest way to keep your cabin grime-free, particularly if you don’t have access to mains power where you clean your car, is to grab a cordless vacuum. There will be no wires trailing across the pavement, no bulky cylinders to lug around, and no dragging street dirt back into the house when you’ve finished.
