I was really pleased with result.
Believe it or not the photos don't really show the reality.


CJ: I have spoken to Daz and commented and he was meant to have referred it as fastest road legal P1 opposed to fastest car. Think he is due to edit soon.


Costs:

Get the car to Dazzler (Sheerness) and what you see on mine will cost you £ 250.00.

Engine bay & interior are other variations & extra.

When you see your car it will be £250 well spent. Awesome service!

To be honest andy it is all in the prep work from claying to polishing if you prep is not spot on the wax will not do anythin more than protect the car it may look a bit better but the majority of looks come from prep as you probably know

yeah preperation is the key imo espically claying etc, i know wax is only a protection stage but i was just wondering because theres a thread on cyc about petes53 and swissvax which got me thinking about trying it out as they said it dosent haze as fast and grip the paint in the warmer temperatures making it easier to remove, which is what im having a few issues with at the moment even with using qd, id love to be able to have my own double garage and that would solve the temperature issues but ive only got a marquee so it keeps it out the sun but the temp stays more or less the same

Do it Matt. I know many P1 owners now and the times I hear them say you never realise just how good a P1 is until you own one.

More Prodrive than Subaru, don't forget
