crdo16v 0 Posted May 3, 2006 tragic that some pr*cks would pay somebody else that much to clean their toys- lets face it hardly any of them will actually get driven anywhere near their potential & most are just ego trips. (JayKay & the like being the exception). I also found the valeter bloke scary with his obssesive cleaning but hey if that floats your boat fair enough. A hurried going over with Autoglym has do to do for my trusty Golf. Would love to see the owners faces when they realised the car was dirty again after say 3 weeks & would "need" another £5K clean. :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trig 0 Posted May 4, 2006 Hey, power to the lad, he mus sit at home after driving somewhere to clean bird cack off some loaded blokes joy and have a jolly good old giraffe with his lass then polish her one off before bed! PMSL! Fairplay to him. He's made a name for himself and he's charging ridiculous amounts for a carwash. I have to say though. I've spent a few hours doing my car in the past and it has come out looking pretty special, it would be hard to get it looking substantially better IMO and not worth 5k!

marcus 0 Posted May 4, 2006 Glad you all saw this. Ive got a car valet business and this made me laugh too. Crdo16v - your right, its exactly the same rich idiots that spend 10's of thousands on their pets. I might undercut him and charge £4500.00 LOL.

ardandy 0 Posted May 5, 2006 61 step car wash! Plus, in my autoexpress mag a week before fifth gear was on, it said only 2 people in the country are trained to put it on. So fair play to the guy. Who wouldn't want to be in that position? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
