No. You can do as good a job yourself in half a day for a small fraction of the price. You can even buy the product on ebay, Autoglym also offer s similar products. Any care care forum such as detailingworld.co.uk will have plenty of information explaining how to do it.

When buying a few years ago- I can remember being offered a canvas bag of "car care goodies" marketed under the name of Superguard or some such-paint hardener, alloy wheel cleaner, super resin polish, assorted dusters, seat cleaner and varous interior sprays and wipes etc etc-what was truly shocking was the price £200. Naturally I declined-but having negotiated my new car price-the sales guy threw it in for free . When i had more time--i investigated more closely and calculated that had I gone to any motorists shop--I could have got the lot for about £25.

Since then I use elbow grease( free) ,water and a twice a year application of Autoglym-the latter being very simple to apply-producing a showroom shine!

I bought a car privately that had already been treated. I got the full pack that came with the car.

To answer your question succinctly – No!

When my Dad bought his current car he simply got a local mobile valet to wash and wax with Autoglym. About £40 and a real good job.
