When the new beast eventually arrives, I'd quite like to have it properly detailed, as I supect the dealership soap monkeys will doubtless use the obligatory grit-filled bucket and floor mop to wash the bodywork prior to handover.

Has anyone used a good detailer in the Glasgow area that they would recommend? Not looking to spend more than about £400 or so if possible.

I've never used this company. But I've seen some of his work and had a chat to him. He certainly knows his stuff.

Others on here may have used him. Let me know how you get on!

Good luck.

This guy prepped mine, I was very happy with the result, my dealership recommended him in the first instance and basically indicated they would rather not prep my car! He's in Wishart but has a mobile valeting van so was no problem coming to Dundee.

You can actually see my car in his FB wall thing:

If you want to see more pictures of the finished car it's here:

Also, I can't remember how much he charged me but was less than 400 anyway.

That is one spectacular bit of engineering - the silverstone & red is a fantastic combination.

Thanks for the link, will give him a shout when I know my delivery date.

Hi there,

I've used Robert a number of times and he did a new car detail on my car after I collected it from the dealer and took it straight to him. The time he spends in the cars is way in excess of what you would reasonably anyone to spend. He doesn't charge extra for the time, just wants to ensure he gets a finish he is happy with. I'm very fussy about my car and Robert knows this and his work certainly gets my seal of approval.

I could recommend Richard if you don't mind going to Wishaw/Motherwell. He did a great job with my new car 2.5 years ago. http://www.rgkdetailing.com

+1 for Richard. Does all my cars for me. Does a great job.

You'll not get better than Defined Details in Cambuslang. He's considered one of the best in the UK.

+1 for Defined Details and the Head Detailer Gordon Muir. Gordon provided a new car detail for my 340i M Sport in April and did a great job. He is a specialist in his field and provides training to other detailing enthusiasts.

Thanks for all the replies and recommendations chaps, much appreciated. I've been lurking on Detailing World as well and am (vaguely) contemplating getting a basic but well-specced kit and doing a DIY job..... watch this space....

Hi,
I used Robert @ Incredible detail 3 yrs ago for new car prep. Took delivery of 330d without dealer prep and went straight to Robert. Got full detail, still looks good. Would use again as very professional, spent best part of 12 hrs over 2 days working on car.
