Car Valet

Drive around you should find one the hand car washes run by non english speaking persons.
Some are rubbish.. Some are good and some vary depending on what side of the bed they got out of that day.
I used to use one and they were very good, The car seemed to stay cleaner for longer after also. But they got lazy and didnt do the job properly.
Tried a few others and they were ok ish.. Now i goto one that do everything.
Basic quick wash takes 20 minutes. for £6. They do the door and boot openings and under the doors. Clean the glass afterwards. They are like whippets.
If your having a full valet. Make sure the cars empty... My sister has had things go missing. Even stuff like old tax discs, That are the current colour.
No reason for them to remove the tax disc holder and remove the old ones.Censorship Reigns Supreme in Troll City...0 -

Worth simply parking and wandering about out on the road and see what other cars come out like and how much attention they get!0 -
I use the Slovakians for £14 and they do a great job. Proper hard graft on a cold day.0

Hi
I use a guy in long eaton who is immensely good at bringing a car back to new.
He will charge about £100 but his level of cleaning is second to none, and will spend as much time on it as he has to in order to achieve his standard of finish.
Falling that, the Romanians at Tesco long eaton do a good valet for £16
Martyncwebster@btinternet.com if yo would like his number
