Does anyone have any recommendations?

I was thinking of getting Evening Bonfire from Woodwick Candles but it seems quite expensive considering how long it lasts...

    I use Autoglym Autofresh and just spray inside the car once a week.

    I used to buy the bottles at £6 for 500ml but have discovered it's possible to buy the concentrate on Ebay that works out at £1 a litre. Used once a week a litre would last about 6 months.

    If there is a really bad smell in the car then I use Odour Eliminator, also by Autoglym

    Open the windows whilst driving.

    Rain helps.
    I think this job really needs
    a much bigger hammer.

    is it the same AG product? or a knock off?

    OK just googled, it's a AG product - I presume for the trade.

    Have to ask though, there's probably enough product there to finish an entire forecourt and then some. Why do you need so much?

    just search autofresh concentrate. You'll get loads like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Autoglym-Autofresh-Concentrate-1-ltr-/300564425794?pt=UK_Car_Accessories_Car_Care_Cleaning&hash=item45fb092c42

    I'm all for buying in bulk and saving money. But £30 for a air freshner is too much for me. Even if it is a lifetime supply. :rotfl:

    You'll just get sick of the fragrance after a few months anyway.

    Since you ask, I pay £25 and there are 3 cars in the household. If you know how long those Magic Tree things last at £1 a time you will realise it is indeed money saving.:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
  • Please don't anyone take this the wrong way, but I give mine a good clean & hoover once a month or so & have never needed to use air freshener... then again, maybe I have a smelly car as a result & all my friends are too polite to say anything.
