Ultra HD wash ... not worth the money.

Had the Ultra HD wash. My wheels were far from clean and it barely dried my van. Not worth the money, better off with a £7.50 wash at Sainsbury's.

There was still bug splat all over my windows and bird poo on the bodywork. I usually have a great experience here buy not this time. At half the price the hand wash down the road is where I will go next time 😞

Lost my trust

Asked for a rain guard wash and was told that the ‘lights were faulty and only showed triple foam’. Naturally I then asked for a Triple Foam wash instead which he protested but I insisted.

He then told me that the card machine was also faulty. So I gave him £10 in cash for an £8.50 transaction.

He then took the card machine to the car behind me.

I had to shout to get his attention and ask for my change to which he said ‘what change?’ I was very firm in reminding him I gave him £10 and he reluctantly gave me my change.

I’ve used this car wash for years, never again though!

Date and time of experience: 27/04/26 c.1600hrs.

My car bumper was missing a part afterwards and none of the operators noticed or told me! I’ve had to go to a garage to order a part!

I like the ease of imo but when you pay for the most expensive wash I do expect my car to come out clean and not have a dirty rear end or alloys still. A little disappointing

Was ok

Not particularly clean for the price (£10). I’d just go to a standard drive through one in future for a similar standard clean and cheaper. Won’t be going back
