What i don't understand is why these rich guys let there car get in this state in the 1st place.
To me,that is the exact same attitude as an only child who gets everything bought for them and don't appreciate it.
I would like to see pictures of all these cars 6mths after they have had this crazy price detail.I bet they look the same as what they did when they arrived at the studio.

dont wish to drag up old threads, but i was bored so i took a look on the PB website.
£70 + Vat gets you a car wash/dried, and tyre blackner
£280 + VAT gets you car washed/dried, clay bar + waxed, engine bay and windows cleaned and paintwork sealed.
basically 300 quid for a thorough car wash and wax thats basically a correction with most other companies.
so we cant even use the argument that they are expensive because what they do requires specialist skills

Not being funny but anyone can wash a car, never had my own business but every car I've owned has been immaculate down to the ground. I couldn't justify paying £5 to a migrant to do it.

Not very many people don't know how to put some car shampoo in a bucket, add warm water, use a wash mitt and then dry it with a towel

That's why you need to learn mate. I started off knowing very little and a while later I knew what was what and apart from using a DA I could pretty much do the same as what someone charges £70 for. Not being big headed but it's true.
