This is sounding more and more like sour grapes,but you are forgiven for being totally wrong.
you have shown a dirty car,nothing else.
(its my mistake for photographing the car unclean and you jumping to an incorrect conclusion)
at the time of that photo i was moving a few items in to a new house that had not had the final black top put down for the road surface,and was consequently muddy and dirty..ergo dirty car.
and no, mine is nothing like your horror story.
My photo in my post its just a photo of what mine is like,
no boasting just enjoying knowing that one part on my car does not need my undivided attention or any more money spent on it,
then i can concentrate on the other mechanical items that i want to be perfect too.
surely lr/ rr made a few good ones,even if yours isnt.
in that photo you are showing, it is highlighting dirt, nothing else
the car was not cleaned in that photo at that time, and subsequent photos of the car showing those latest wheels on it clearly show no dirt or rust/corrosion.
see attached two photos
feel free to zoom in and try and find something on the cleaned car,
as i have said in respect of the body this is a good one,
and the reason why i am very reluctant to buy a later one knowing that more than likely it wont be as clean
if it is driven and it gets wet or even muddy i just clean it off, using de ionized water,
( what the window cleaners around here use, no salts chlorine etc ) it dries clear,with no spotting or blemishes and makes life much easier
leather it and polish it, i try to get all areas cleaned and no debris caught anywhere so not to cause any later problems down the road.
it was not a bad car when i bought it but i did spend time putting right that what wasnt up to my standards
