And now for something a little different!

This quirky little Innocenti Mini was carefully cleaned with extra care taken due the custom paintjob.

It has had a few well known owners in its time. I won't say who they are but there are some clues!

Detailing goes beyond simply making a car look great on the outside.

A tidy engine bay doesn't just look the part, it can also make detection of pesky leaks far easier!

Here are some examples of engine bays after receiving some detailing treatment in the past few months.

Another Jaguar worked on last year was this rather interesting Series 3 E-Type with quite a few tricks under the bonnet to help it achieve a top speed of over 150 mph.

Having just received a full respray, the interior and engine bay were in need of a good clean-up to remove all traces of bodyshop dust and to bring them up to the same standard as the exterior.

Following a restoration by CKL Developments, this beautiful Jaguar C-Type was shipped over the pond and entered into the Pebble Beach Concours. The car then went on to take part in Colarado Grand, a rally covering 1000 miles.

Upon return to the UK, the car was very much in need of a deep clean to return it to concours condition. Every nut and bolt of this car was cleaned with the seats and floor pans removed to gain access to all those hidden areas where dirt, detritus, and oil had found its way in.

This unusual looking Ferrari 412 was completed in the run-up to Christmas.
A thorough paint correction and interior detail were carried out to ensure the car was looking its absolute best for the new custodian.
The leather interior, while all intact and original, had got a little dry over the years, so a nourishing balm was applied to make it more supple and protect it in the future.

This Ferrari 250 Granturismo arrived from the States with a layer of "mystery dirt" on it, some of which was fairly well attached to the paintwork. Following a good soak in the correct prewash for the job, a gentle wash was all that was required to safely clean the car.
