You always see cars that are hardly even a couple of years old getting "detailed"..

When you compare the two, you can see the difference. The money and time spent on the F40 hasn't achieved the same result as the Ford.

Prevention is better than cure when it comes to paintwork.

Keep it nice and it'll last longer.

TBH the guy is a detailer not a car restorer, what else can he do but machine polish things and clean some leather.
No expense spared he should have sent it off to ferrari for a full rebuild

Matt (the guy who detailed the M3) is one of the only people my brother would highly recommend to others.
He's a very good detailer, and his premises are top notch too.

It does look like a nice unit and a well run business. You can tell he knows what's what

Your best bet is to go on http://www.detailingworld.co.uk and ask there.

That way you can even check up on some of their work.

Likewise.
I would be offended if that was a 'no expenses spared' detail.
