Just a wash is £3 and wash and dry is £5 so you did well for £8!

Exactly, where do we start with this thread?
The only guarantee is to do it yourself.
I remember seeing a TV show about the guy who does Rod Stewart's cars a few years ago - his services were something ludicrous like £2000 per car. I guess if there are people stupid enough to buy "Do ya think I'm sexy" then there is a pop star stupid enough to want his cars cleaned with a toothbrush.
Maybe even he had an off day and scratched Rod's 18th Ferrari with a hangnail.
A proper valet costs about £30 and they do an amazing job!

Never been disappointed by the £15 version so never bothered paying £50.
Never scratched.
Be a cold day in hell before i let such as the typical roadside car wash crew loose on my vehicles.
I see the typical car wash customers as i drive past, often they are slouched/leaning on the wall in all their rotund glory watching (phew must be tiring for them), good wall that to stand the strain.
Heaven forbid someone takes their car to a car wash, they must be fat and/or lazy to do so.
What a knob
Touched a nerve...:rotfl:
Typical? I'm a tad rotund myself, but enjoy dropping my car off in the morning and collecting it in the evening.
The walking I do in the hours between will do me far more good than cleaning the car.
