Thanks for the recommendation - I'd thought about using KDS having heard the reputation but it just seems a bit daft to drive that far to have it done.

Will investigate Gleammachine.

Giles
You will be fine with rob from gleam machine wink
not sure if he undertakes leather re-colouring thou .


The distance wise has never been a problem for other customers , i would say that the bulk of my work is from surrey , London and essex not kent where i am situated .
Kelly, Leave my Essex customers alone. lol

I can undertake leather re-colouring, although mobile I would need you to bring the car to me as it would be something that needed to be undertook in a controlled enviroment, so Kelly would be the obvious choice as he is probably nearer for you.

Sounds as though I'm going to be lynched if I don't. Need to have Specialised Paintwork sort out a key scratch down the side first then will be in touch.

As an update, the car's going to Kelly today (Sat) so I'll post some before and after pics when it's done.

It hasn't been cleaned since my wedding in August and has been to Italy and back in the interim - there should be quite a transformation!

If? If?
Impressive results by our dear Kelly is a mere formality.
Don't be such a doubting Thomas - get it booked in!

Just checked out his site and reckon a £500 full detail could be on the cards.

The rear reflector and rear lights come up a treat. Was going to order a new set as mine are a bit dull, but maybe they just need a good detail. What products do you use on the them?

Was the 993 subject to a £500 detail or just the paint correction and leather repair? How long does a full detail take?

That was the old Full Package and leather re-colour, i have all new packages to cater for all requirements , this allows the customer to pick and choose in more detail what they want and what they dont want .

If you email me direct i can send you the pdf files of the new menus which explain whats involved for each different package , time scales , and prices for various size vehicles etc . thumbup

12 different packages with 13 bolt on options now and each one has 4 variants for size of vehicle .

Happy to say I'm very happy with Kelly's work and that the car will be going back to himat the end of the summer for it's pre-winter bath.

Sadly, I had to drive it a across a muddy field the day after picking it up from Kelly. Still, will at least be another big transformation!

None taken - it was a state and much better now!

Just about to replace my other car so, all being well, a 5-er M Sport will be going to see Kelly for a slightly lesser treatment in the next month or so - will need to get it dirty first...
