New car detail recommended? How have your delivery Evoques looked?

Jonty, Looks a very thorough detail. Can you give us some indication of cost. Looks brilliant in the finished pics!

Micky, £450 (gulp!). Seems a lot but the final result is brilliant.

Mine was £450

Paint check, wash, light clay, cleaner, 4 layers of Swisswax and the interior cleaned/protected. Took the chap most of the day.

Thanks for the update Jonty, looks well worth it. I was considering having mine detailed before I collected from dealer, but it was difficult arranging the detailer. Now I'm torn between using something like Autoglym HD or have a treatment similar to you which is much more hard wearing and longer lasting than a wax.
Need to do a bit more research I think.

Sorry,xxxx5, I missed your question. I'm right on the Lancs/Yorks border near Todmorden.

I Had mine detailed by Revolution Detailing in Bristol with Qtechniq products and am very pleased, the paintwork was treated with C1 and it looks almost wet and comes with a 5 year warrantee all I have to do is wash it and even the dirt is suppose to stick less.

I also had the leather treated and it seems to have made the colour slightly more vivid really pleased as I was worried it could change the colour for the worse, it just looks better than without it.

I would definitely recommend Revolution Detailing, Adam spent the whole day on my Evoque and Iam very pleased with the results

That does seem a little pricey - did they even use a machine on it? Even if using swisswax there's a hefty margin in there. Chap will be taking home over 7k a month if he only does 4 of those a week!

I've been quoted 200 for a day which includes a light once over 'finishing' polish with a machine.
