Just been offered Autoglym 'Life Shine' as option on new car for £299.

Anyone used it? I'm assuming not really worth it... but wondered if anyone had good experience/thoughts...

I would take the £300 and pay a proper detailer you trust to clean, and wax/seal the car properly instead, I've not had any experience with it, but the state you see some brand new cars in after their "detailers" have had a go on them is shocking, makes you think they just drive the car through longleat safari park, through some autoglym stuff out the windows, and let the monkeys go to town on the car.

Short answer, no you shouldn't opt for it, paid for by you or thrown in as a freebie - it's a £10 trade buy, and about £40 or so for their valeter's time to apply it.
It's not worth the paying for as part of any deal, and as a freebie to clinch the deal, it's cheaper than a new tyre of decent make, or new marque specific floor mats, or a tankful of fuel.
