Detailer recommendations in the south east pls

Post by GLM » Tue Aug 28, 2012 10:11 pm

Hi - I am looking to get a recommendation on a top detailer in the south east to give my 09 RS C6 a good going ahead of the harsher winter months. The paint work isn't in too bad condition but it could do with a little TLC to remove a few swirls/scratches etc... and would just like to protect it as much as I can (without getting my hands dirty :D )

I have seen the Miracle Detail site (http://www.miracledetail.co.uk) which isn't a million miles away - has anyone used them?
Or are there similar people that you would recommend?

Also, what is a reasonable amount to pay - Miracle Detail is circa £750 for the top detail work that takes 4 days or so, which sounds fine cost-wise, although I would rather it's done quicker than in 4days.

Thanks in advance

Try this guy.
He's more northern based. But will travel to you.
I've seen some of his work and it's truly outstanding.

Can thoroughly recommend Cambridge Autogleam / Nathan Willits. He has done a full correction on my car before and is looking after a mate's Aventador at present; does high end cars and top job irrespective of the car. Google search the name and they are top of the list.

Good thread as I've been looking for the same recommendation and in the same location.

Ideal Valating (http://www.idealvaleting.com/) are based in Horsham I believe, sites under construction so can't be sure, therefore very convenient for me. Haven't found anyone who has used them yet though.

Money can't buy you love, but it can buy you a well sorted racecar
