SUPAGUARD option?
« on: 02 January 2010, 19:19 »
Has any one taken the supa guard option whith there car ?
and is it any good ?
as i got quoted £421 for it as a pack
with full tank of fuel, mats(which come with the car i thought), taxed (with car i would have thought) and aftercare bits for supagard

sounds steep to me ? as i can get the lokal bloke to do the paint guard for £80 mates rate :)

Don't let them do it, a few on here are not happy and had it removed and redone, they just get some labourer to apply it and make a mess of your car,
I had mine removed cos it was done badly mates rates much cheaper and a better job no dought,
just a gimmick to get more money out of you,

Tax is included in the quoted on the road price. Supaguard was around £300 when I paid. Had it on the beemer, it is pretty rubbish really. At least with VW you get an autoglym pack, not tesco value in BMW bottles though.

I have ordered it with my GTI. Arnold Clark only takes 150pounds for it. Will be nice to pick up the car with a bit of an extra shine on it.

A compleat waste of money!! Do it your self with colinite and its a much better job and you will have a peace of mind its been done properley!! Colinite cost about 20 pounds !! I dont trust dealers cleaning cars , I tell them not to clean the car on the PDI rather do it myself. I have seen some of the cars and the mess they make of them swirls esp on black cars makes my blood boil !! :sad:

Yes that’s your opinion mine is different. I will pick it up with the protection and then give it two coats of Colinite.
I have used a safe guard paint protector on other cars and it works well. However I would not pay over one hundred and fifty pounds.
Lets be honest no one is going to drive away a brand new car with swirl marks on it.

IMO, i would never pay money for the dealers valeters to use this product, or any product for that matter. There are a few good guys out there at the dealers but not many.

A good recommended detailer/valeter would do a brilliant job for about £100-£150, there a a few good oneS in and around central Scotland.

Just my tuppence worth   :smiley:
