Got one of these especially for my car I like many detail their car using a snow foam pre wash so it's perfect. I have a more powerful pressure washer also but get it anywhere near a chip of paint on modern cars and it will strip the paint back further. If you can use a pressure washer ALONE to totally clean your car then you must have something rather special!! Pressure washers alone do not clean cars

bought one last time out for the same price, compact unit fit for small tasks, bikes, windows, light duties etc, too small for driveways and cars

Are you trying to flense you car down to the metal! I only use my pressure washer on the car when it's at its most diffuse, or if I'm trying to clean the wheels. You don't need a powerful washer for your car. That's silly.

Only thing i will say pictures on the box suggest this could be used independently from the mains water supply, (ie: from a bucket etc) i did try it but this didn't work, unless i had not primed it properly. Might try it again now i have used it on the mains but highly doubt it.

Don't think any of the cheaper ones will feed from a bucket, I have a Karcher one that cost nearly £200 that does that, but a waste of time as the bucket is empty in no time .

Yeah your supposed to attach it to a water butt or such a bucket will last you about 10 seconds.

Yes true , didn't think it would to be fair ,but for giving a bike a quick wash and by using my extra large detailing buckets this would have been handy. Does give you the impression though on side of the box otherwise i wouldn't have tried it, so if people are looking on the box before hand thinking this is the case its maybe worth pointing out.

You can certainly have too much pressure, my father once told me while he was working at a marina, his boss's son managed to strip a load of paint off his new car by using their commercial pressure washer to try to clean it. The thing was normally used to strip barnacles and anti-fouling off hulls
I'd be wary about using the highest pressure diy ones on a car in case blasting the dirt and grit stuck to the car around causes scratches to the paintwork.

I purchased one of these a couple of months ago when B&Q were selling them for £30.It struggled to prise out tiny weeds between slabs.I took it back and got a refund.
Should be ok for car and bike washing.

Other lance's like the Bosch Roto Lance make a big difference if they are compatible, i have this lance on my other more powerful Bosc and its 20 time more effective than the standard fan lance.

Too right. Why on earth would you risk using a pressure washer on a car when a decent hose jet will do the job just as well but without the risk of stripping away paintwork?

Any idea if this will function from a water butt apart from the water tap ?
