Mobile valeting in London?

[peter_964rs]

Anyone know of any mobile valeting services in the London area?

I own and (occasionally) use a Zymol kit, but have a logistical problem; I'm going to Spa next week for a track day until Wednesday, and then have to work two days before driving up to Bramham Park for the Porsche Club of Great Britain annual meeting. I need the car to be clean and mightily polished for the event.

Current plans are for me to go to my local hand car wash place, which does a simple but unsophisticated job, then take the Zymol with me and frantically polish when I get there. But, I'd rather get someone to come out and clean & polish the car for me whilst at work (if such a thing exists).

Any thoughts?

I now that Zymol offer a mobile service at around £200 for the outside of the car. I can dig out more details if you are interested.

Contact Brad (I think!) at Sportscar World Limited (Zymol appointed UK agent) on 0707 4444911 or 01795 420121. Would be interested to hear how you get on.

Get your work troosers on and do it yourself you lazy bugger . No-one else will do it as well as you and think of the satisfaction of looking at your shiney car and knowing you've done it.

Last time I did it I took half a day to do the job properly. I simply don't have half a day available when I get from Spa to when I have to go to Bramham Park.

And, yes, I'm also quite lazy.

I have just bought some zymol, so will see if the half day estimate is accurate. I love the fact that the most expensive zymol polish is an amazing 1299 quid!

I phoned and discovered that there is someone who can do it, at a cost of between £250 and £500.

Or, I could do my local hand car wash place at £7 and then drive up to Bramham Park and furiously polish it whilst on the stand....

Decisions, decisions.....

[scottster]

Bring it round my place on Sat morning, I'll do it by hand myself for £250 - £500. I'll even get the missus to give you a hand job whilst you wait.

Is that the going rate these days? No wonder you can afford a Porsche.

[domster]

I can remember when the local scouts used to do it for a fiver.

And the car wash was OK, too.

Scottster, how long do you think it will take you to clean my HGV

I was going to refrain from this, but seeing as Scottster started it...

You'll get arrested for doing that in public

[scottster]

UV, I have it on good account from the 'city gals' that you've shot and left within about two mins. I couldn't do a Smart car in that time!!

Your misses doesn't know any other way
