This was done a few weeks back, my cousin's fairly new 56 plate 330d. Car was dirty to start with:

Bilberry sprayed then all over the wheels:

Whilst I continued with the outside, my brother louis started on the interior, which needed alot of TLC:

Leathers need alot of attention:

The Matts were filthy as well:

Wheels got sealed & tyres dressed etc:

Jeffs was used on the paint:

Autosol & Megs polish on exhaust, loads and loads of tar before hand, after 30mins +, came out new again:

mines going into hiding next week for a whole week, gona get the paint back into good standard for now until spring, most will be the protection though as all wheels will be off and clayed and sealed and wax(3 coats) the car will get a good slamming of ultrafina then sealed and then a few coats of black hole and 3 coats of colly 915.

loo forward to seein the beemer once its done N8
