Halfords Advanced Supersize Microfibre Drying Towel

Price: £5.99 Weight gain: 475g Contact: 0845 762 6625, halfords.com

Like the Poorboy’s World cloth, this has a waffle weave but is smoother and less fluffy to give what the pack claims is a “luxury feel”. Perhaps this is why the Halfords cloth trailed in the soak test, despite being only a little smaller. It was a similar story on the bonnet, where it filled quickly on our test sections. Not much effort to use, but you’ll need to wring it often.
