The new detailing wagon!

[mikec32]

Not quite an MB, but thought I would share it with you guys anyhow! Got delivered last monday. Within 5 days of delivery the seats were re trimmed to match the ferrari california seats, new alloys and tyres, coilovers and windows tinted. Its a top of the range caddy 2.0 140ps with only sat nav and rear spoiler not ticked on the upgrades.Hope you like!

Thanks for looking!

It's a VW, so it would have to be a golf caddy, unless we are playing polo...

I guess you will now be under some pressure to keep the van looking as imaculate as it it currently in your line of work

If by '2.0' you mean the 2.0 TDi; keep an eye on those injectors! Although I don't know if the warranty covers them, if they don't they are priced at £900 each and you have 4!

Other than that- great little van that will hold it's money very well.

Did you have Elite tint the windows?

 

[mikec32]

My friend at elite car care in Maidenhead tinted them. Done a fantastic job!

How many cars do you have to clean per month to pay for the van, upgrades, equipment and wages costs?

Thought I recognised the van from their Facebook pics.

I've always had good service from Alex when ordering from them.

Not really sure...umm? Don't really look at it like that as I need it and thought I would treat myself. My equipment is payed for and 98% of it will last a few years and only some needs replacing monthly such as snowfoam, degreasers quick retailers etc. But I have already spent around £30,000 on products including my jet washer which was near to £3,000. This does not include the van.

About 1.

About 1.

I have just booked a car in for a restoration detail which will last one month maybe 5 weeks, so will be that month.

 

[reflexboy]

Yes It will be sign written but very minimal. Just my company emblem and web address.

Not really as I'm super busy so have time to clean it once a week or 2 weeks.clients employ me as I'm pretty good at what I do, not if my vans dirty.

I'll post up pictures of GT3 RS that I just spent 5 days on.

Stunning mate. I'd be impressed if that turned up to do my motor.

A month on a car? How do you charge for something like that?

Like already said, loving those seats mate
