Halfords Advanced Supersize Microfibre Drying Towel

Overall Auto Express rating

3.0

Best price: £5.99 | Water gain: 410g

As its name suggests this is one of the bigger cloths, yet its waffle weave lacked absorbency in our soak test, just topping 400g. That limited thirst carried over to our bonnet, where it left a thin film that took a while to dry. Keen price just puts the Halfords ahead of the similar Meguiar’s Water Magnet, but there are better options.
