    Well havent got photos but we ran into a swarm of bees in the West and by the time we got through we couldnt see out of the windscreen for splattered bees and honey literally running down the screen.
    Couldnt put the wipers on either as would have made it worse. Luckily was a servo just down the road a few K's and we used a whole pack of wipes getting it off Couldnt use hot water as it would have washed it all into the drains and stunk.

    Had that once in Dads car when cream got spilt into the heater vents Stunk for years on a hot day.

    You're not alone! I walked past a parked white Audi S1 few days ago, was absolutely covered in the same bugs.

    What I did notice, in that whole line of cars only the white cars had bugs on them.
