Depends if you wanted a full/half valet.

* For a full valet your probably talking minimum of £65
* For a half valet your probably talking around minimum of £15

can range from like i would say £50-£1000+ have a look on detiailing world and find someone on there that is nearby to you and make a enquiry- then they can assess your car and give you a quote

I always prefer detailing my car myself, and like Andy said it saves you money, but I don't do it for that reason.

I always walk away happy knowing that it's my own work & can do it at my own pace too.

ive only detailed it by hand using the clay bars polish and wax etc, its hard work but its worth it! you save hundreds of quid too. tho i say it would class if it was done by machine!

i would recommend doing it yourself its really satisfying! also you can then get the finish and look that you want. And also everyone on here will help and there are so many other forums and things that can help you like youtube. You will then eventually get the detailing bug lol

I suppose if your getting the full works then for £300 that isn't too bad. Hmm.
