It's only and nothing more than a lump of metal at the end of the day, no rules on how it is to be used, my thought is that a car is so expensive an item to have I like to get my moneys worth from it, mine had battle scars, doesn't bother me in the slightest tbh, adds character imo, mine stays outside all the time, use din all weathers inc ice and snow, and for all reasons, shopping, taking dog for haircut every six weeks, towing a caravan, even some mild off roading!!
