holy crap.

 

[HybridSquirrel]

you just find pointless stuff on the internet...i give you the pointless stuff award

 

[randomlinh]

not entirely pointless if you're a car detailer.. or at least enjoy detailing your car.

crazy that he applies the wax by hand... I wonder how much he charges.. it was 6000 for just the wax...

 

[FeuerFrei]

Um, I wouldn't be washing my car in direct sunlight.

 

[puffff]

for a $6000 car wash, there'd better be hot, big breasted women in wet tshirts rubbing their bodies against the windows while i'm sitting inside.

Fixed That's how you do it.

from what ive heard, he can because the sunlight in england is MUCH less powerful than it is here in the U.S.

$6000 != £6000 n00b.
Go learn about the world, then come back.

 

[Safeway]

That was awesome. Thanks MIKE!

the wax costs 6000 pounds.

but the WASH of your car costs up to 5 grand.

Neither of those amounts is equal to $6000.

i thought he had said 6 grand, hence the edit.

That was pretty neat, but when he busted out the "ultrasonic depth gauges" it was a little bit much for me.

5 grand on a UK show means £5000 NOT $5000.

Just use xe.com and 5000 pounds = 8891.79 dollars

The guy washes cars we dream of.
Yes, an ultrasonic depth gauge is a bit much when your washing a Honda (Or Toyota or Chevy or whatever else we commoners drive) but for cars that cost more then most houses...... Doesnt seem over the top to me.

 

[Don Vito Corleone]

£5000 = $8,890.76 US!

I would think this would be a pretty satisfying job, and presumably lucrative. They never said how many hours it takes for the 61-step wash-and-wax, but if it's done in a single day he's doing pretty damned well, regardless of the cost of the supplies (plus, I believe that astronomically expensive Zymol wax is refillable for life for free).

WTH...

£5000 != $5000.
It's not a $5000 car wash. It's an $8800 car wash.

*sigh*

self ownage is always fun, isnt it?

Edit: got me wondering how my camry would look if i some how managed to have that kind of wash & wax job done on it.

 

[fbrdphreak]

I guess if you own cars that expensive, $8K on a car wash is nothing. Might as well do it right *shrug*
