Detailing

I should be taking delivery of my E90 in early July. Based on the comments of this forum I will resist the overtures of the dealer to go for Seal & Protect. However, I would like to get the car properly detailed, probably going for paint protection as part of the deal. Who would you recommend for this? I live in Berkshire so it needs to be someone reasonably local or who will travel to me or my workplace (Feltham).

Thanks guys.

I've since contacted Prestige Detailing, who has also been recommended. Sound like a good firm, so tentatively booked them to come to the dealer when my car arrives and detail to perfection. Zymol here I come!

You are gonna have to organize a major photo-shoot when you get that car. Should look amazing being so 'individual'

You're right. And after paying for the thing I can forget the luxuries of Marks. It'll be Lidl all the way for me!

Anyone recommend any car detailers in the NorthWest/South Lakes? I will resist the urge to pay the dealer £295 for Supaguard this time and spend the money else where!
