If you’re anything like us, your car looks less like it’s just driven off the showroom forecourt and more as though a troupe of sticky-fingered imps have been given free rein to cover it in grease and discarded KitKat wrappers. (Please don’t examine those children’s car seats too closely!).

We do our best to keep our cars spick and span (honest), but we’re busy people and sometimes you have to call in the pros to keep standards on the road. This is why we have A&J Valeting on stand-by to give our motors a thorough going-over, deep-cleaning, buffing and polishing to perfection. Did you know a car can be blow-dried? In the capable hands of A&J’s teams, it absolutely can.

They have two levels of valeting, depending on the level of presentation you need. The Gold service, which costs from £95 and last 90/120 mins, includes a scrub-down with snow foam and jet wash, plus rigorous interior hoover and application of an aqua coat to keep the grime at bay. Or go the extra mile and book the Platinum package (from £130), which leaves no corner un-blitzed – your alloy wheels and leather interiors will thank you.

This sparklingly efficient biz is based in Aylesbury, but as you’d expect of a car business, they have wheels and can travel to you. Say hello to their very clean van pulling into your driveway and breathe a sigh of relief. They’re here to wash your worries away.
