Supermarket Valet

Sorry if this is on here somewhere already, did search but couldn't see.

Has anyone used supermarket valet people that are in the car park of large supermarkets? and what did you think if you have? I don't want the inside of the car done just the outside washed, i can't wash the car at home because of the location of my house i cant get close enough due to a large green in front of me that is fenced.
Any thought, would i be best to avoid the supermarket valet?

Paul_s - please be seated and I think you should prepare yourself for some negative responses!

I'm not a car clean freak (apols to all those that are ), but even I wouldn't go anywhere near them.

avoid, avoid like you would a large fire or a heavy dose of ebola.

Its been a good day so I'm going to stay clam on this question.
Just going to say three words.


NO,NO & NO.

After what happened to my Mazda in Sainsburys today , I will never take my Evoque in a Supermarket car park, let alone pay to have a load of dirty water scraped all over it,

Might be an idea to find a mobile valeter.

I saw a guy the other day in the supermarket cleaning the roof of an X5 by standing on the tyres leaning across the car to reach. Doubt that was doing the paintwork any good...

As a Valeter (Mobile) myself I could be biased in the answer but Use these sort of places at your own risk. If you have any interest at all in your car you will steer clear.
These places are for Mondeo Man etc & those on low incomes or have no interest in their cars - Simples..........!

I've watched them use coca cola to clean the alloys on someone's car once say no more......... Shocking they are allowed to operate at all!

Having cleaned it (with grey water) got it looking nice, I nip over sainsburys, in for 5 minutes to come out and find someone has scraped along the back bumper leaving tons of thier paint on mine but pulling a load of mine off too just drove off, no note or anything, blxxdy minded inconsiderate arxehole! Think they have the right to just damage peoples property and not care or take responsibility.

Only consolation is to keep telling myself, thats why I kept it rather than trade it for sod all, to save the Evoque from these incompetents.
