Prolly once a month. Because of the way everything is, it takes me about thirty mins at least just to get everything ready before I can start, so it's too much hassle.

When I've moved somewhere more permanent, I'll be able to arrange everything to make it easier to detail the car.

Once a fortnight I would say roughy - depending on the weather at the weekend.  I do have to do two though and it takes time when they are covered in winter dirt.
