Just had this done by my mate who is a car detailer. What do you reckon?
He charges £160, does a fantastic job, if you want yours doing I can give you his contact details. (Northamptonshire)

What colour is it? Oxford green? Fern green? Those are the only green colours I know.

Looks fantastic mate, he's done a really good job!

Can I ask did he do any paint correction work on your car at all? It's just that I'll be looking for someone to machine polish mine to get all the swirl marks out in the next couple of months... if he'd be interested in coming to Peterborough that is smile

Cheers
Paul

Looks very well, nice job

Now all you have to do is put it in a garage and not drive it or it'll be ruined! I spent 6 hours cleaning my car last saturday, and had to drive to my parents house which is 1/2 hours drive away and i couldn't read the reg number afterwards it got so dirty. Roads are really dirty over here at the moment furious

Stupid question - but does the detailing include the interior?

Your car looks fantastic, and it's very refreshing to see someone with enough balls to think outside the usual colour box. Does you mate do this for a living ?
