What's the best way to maintain the exterior of your Volkswagen Polo?

I've recently purchased a Volkswagen Polo and I want to keep the exterior looking as good as new. Should I wash it by hand or take it to a car wash? And what about waxing and polishing? Is it necessary for a newer car?

In my experience, hand washing is the best way to maintain the exterior of your car. It allows you to pay attention to detail and ensures that all areas are properly cleaned.

I've found that taking my car to a car wash is more convenient and often just as effective. Plus, some car washes offer special services for waxing and polishing.

Waxing and polishing may not be necessary for a newer car, but it can definitely help protect the paint and keep it looking shiny. Consider doing it every 6 months or so.
