Fair play on finding the car and cleaning it up but I repeat the comments about spending too much money on the bits to do it.

It is the site, yes. I think only Zymol trained car washing type people can use the word

at everyone focussing on the cost of wax, everything in this world is available in budget and extreme luxury variants, you can buy champagne for £2 or £20000 cars for £5k or £5m tv's for £50 or £100k. thats just life

Think you only get like one refill per year also. Zymol is overrated anyways.
Excellent car, lovely exmaple.

OK, this has annoyed me
"It's not Detailing - It's art. "
No, it's not art. 100% not art. Never has been, never will be
Attention to detail is not artistic
What a douchebag

First thing I noticed was he was not wearing gloves so he could completely ruin his skin AND he left his wedding ring on, so as to maximise his paintwork damaging potential. Twat.
James or anyone, got any idea what the score is with those Zymol buckets with all the clip on gubbins?

It's more of a large perspex display container than a bottle.

It is made from some very hard to come by ingredients. It was first blended specifically for the Bugatti Royale and it's 100% natural and edible also.

If you own a detailing buisness its worth 8k, If you go out and buy wax every time you run out (wich would be in bulk and quite often) you would save a fair few pounds getting free refills for life.
The average bottle of wax is probably £10. It will last for at least 2 cars. So, far that £8k one to be of any worth (if my maths is correct) you have to wax 1600 cars
The sort of people that use Royale charge 5k for a detail so they're covered really.

That M3 is amazing. Wonder how much he would be able to sell it for
It's like brand new. Would you say it's worth the price it was to buy brand new?
