I ain't there....

I'm tucked up on the couch watching heroes.

He's drafted in another detailer since the alloys took 2 hours.....2 fing hours.... they look great though!
Will be interesting when they get the clay bars out then the machine polishing.

I love boobies i love boobies i love boobies cuz i'm a big kid now! (Come on everybody sing with me you know the words!)

Edit - I paid more than asked as they put so much work into it.

Thats for a "detail", not a valet.

So basically;

Exterior – Vehicle foamed, wash and dried with lambswool mitt and drying towel, arches and wheels cleaned. Tar removed. Paintwork clayed to remove additional bonded contaminants. Paint polished with a cleaner polish, then a layer of durable protection using either a sealant or wax. Door shuts cleaned. Wheels waxed and sealed. Tyres, arches, and exterior plastics dressed. Exhaust polished.

- Basically the swirled effect on my paint will be gone..............And hopefully the car will be like new. (they are taking comparison photos so we'll see)

Interior - Rubbish discarded, full vacuum, Dust and dress all surfaces. Interior glass cleaned. Deoderiser/airfreshener used. Pedals cleaned. Leather cleaned if applicable. 2022 P440e AB

If it was by the local hotsot company (polishedbliss) it would be £350 (and worth it).

These guys are semi-pro (i.e. do it in their spare time) not their main biz so cheaper. 2022 P440e AB

oh right ok but still i just can't pay silly money for a wash

If it was birds doing the job then i'll sit outside and watch them  RRS TDV6 Gone but still around

Number 7 was just checking in on the troops.

I know you guys love the RRS, but since I posted the link to my webcam, it has constantly been accessed! How bad has it got that we're willing to watch people wash one!  2022 P440e AB

left it open in another window - now closed
