Lol yep they sure are a scam! They try to charge you for anything. One company tried quoting me £5000! They said my car has been modified by having sports pack arches... I don't see why arches would affect the quote..

Use distilled or RO water and it wont leave smears behind :) No need for the detergent stuff.

My Dad sent me a picture of a mini, said he'd bought me a present. Turns out it was a mini model he'd photographed well and said that's the best I'm getting....
