Supragal Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 I know there are a few car valet people on here... so, can you guys tell me how much you would charge for the following please. Just flat rate, no discount as in joe bloggs requests it. Volvo V70 needs polishing. Obviously I understand that it needs cleaning first before the polishing. So, outside only, clean all of it and polish... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyW Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Im only just starting out but depending how bad it is i'd want at least £40 then extra for anything else that wanted doing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supragal Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 OK, so when I nearly fell over yesterday when quoted £140 it wasn't just me being stingy then? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 exactly what were they going to do for that rosie , its about right if machine polishing the car Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supragal Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 They were going to wash and wax it, not even that, they use a shampoo with wax added already so not even polished as such. That included wheels and arches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve spedd Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 OK, so when I nearly fell over yesterday when quoted £140 it wasn't just me being stingy then? WTF?! id want a new car for that!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peter richards Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 sounds like a rip off rosie , my sonax has a wax in it , but that doesnt mean i can leave the polish out . that figure £55 is i would say about good value for money , but as stated in the earlier post , recomendation goes a long way , Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
toyotasuprauk Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 That’s a LOT of money, even more reason to feel pleased after cleaning your own car, not only does it look good you just saved a fortune too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
