Leather Restoration On A 2006 Porsche 997 Carrera S

Often, when it comes to protecting a vehicle, attention focuses primarily on the exterior of the car: the paintwork, the wheels, the trim. However, no matter how impressive the exterior, the interior has the potential to let the overall picture down – an important factor to consider, particularly when considering resale value.

Porsche’s new Boxster Spyder recently made a visit to UF Detailing Studio for a New Car Protection Package. And it caused quite a stir! Lower than the GTS by 11mm, longer than the 981 by 10mm and with an aggressive-looking front end it was immediately clear that the distinctive design of the new Boxster Spyder […]

Quantum Silver Aston Martin Virage Volante Has Its ‘Miyabi’ Restored

The Aston Martin Virage turns more than a few heads, in part, as would be expected from this luxury British brand, for its show-stealing looks. However, it’s the Virage’s performance capabilities that make it really stand out from the crowd. The 6-litre V12 engine is capable of catapulting the 1890kg car from 0-62mph in just 4.6 seconds […]

Show Car Preparation for Fast Ford Featured Mk2 Focus RS

As the RS designation indicates, this is no ordinary Ford Focus. One look at the exterior will tell you that much, with its array of air intakes, low splitter, large spoiler on the boot and an impressive diffuser that is clearly rally-inspired. Under the bonnet, the differences become clearer. In spite of sharing the 2.5 […]

Protecting The First Porsche Supercar Of The Modern Era

Mercedes-AMG G63, Developed At Schöckl Mountain, Protected at Brands Hatch

These days, SUVs tend to be either tall cruisers built for on the road comfort, or they are confident off-roaders but with little in the way of luxury. As might be expected of an executive marque, Mercedes-AMG has done its best to find the perfect combination of the two. Enter the G63: a formidable-looking SUV […]
