Looks really nice, can I ask rough cost ?
Dealer has offered me some sort of Auto glim ceramic coating on a f type I’m looking at on Saturday, don’t think any paint correction tho I need to check they want £599

Your paintwork certainly looks lovely and flat/wet. The different colours in the grey really 'pop' in the sunlight nicely.

Here you go

You're missing a trim clip on the LH side scuttle cover, (They are a PITA for coming undone) and either your screen is delaminating in the bottom corner or theres a build up of dirt there which is unlikely since it's freshly detailed?

You’re looking at anywhere from £600 - £1200 roughly for a proper decent detail by a reputable company.

I’d strongly recommend doing this rather than taking whatever the dealer offers you.

Very well spotted indeed! I got that sorted straight after

Just topped off my ceramic coating this weekend with autobrite Carbanuba. Ceramic coatings are fantastic for protection but for depth and gloss I just don't think you can beat a proper old fashioned wax.

Don't bother with dealers. Go to a pro or do it yourself if you want to learn something new. I did mine, took about 9 hours but it's worth it knowing I can repair and touch up the ceramic coat as required.

I wonder if someone has been removing fuse 15?

Car looks great btw, love the colour

Definitely avoid the autoglym stuff. I'm a member of a lot of commercial detailing groups even though I don't do it for work. The commercial autoglym kits that aren't available to the public come up for sale at a super low price (£30-50) and no-one wants them even then. Go with a professional if you don't fancy doing it yourself.

A nice fresh new detail and ceramic coating completed

Lovely colour and the alloys are one of my personal favourites.

As it happens mine is being detailed this week. Should have some pictures to post soon.
