    Looks great. What is a ceramic coat??
    Mine is Carpathian grey, it's always dirty, hard to keep clean like black.

    A ceramic coat is where they fully detail the paintwork and then apply a ceramic coating to protect the paint.
    Keeps the paintwork tip top/less Likely to scratch and so easy to wash.
    Have the same protection on our Range Rover sport and wouldn’t have anything else.
    Downside is they need it for 3 days.
    Will post some pictures once it’s done.

    Depending on the package you take, layers they put on, it can take up to 6 days.

    I used ceramic pro (platinum package) not cheap but worth the heavy price (2500€). Is for uv protection as well. The whole car is done (inside and outside, wheels, spare wheel included). After this they applied the Magnus protection for free (300€) on the lights, mirrors, handles. So if they get scratched you just take the Magnus film off.

    My other car is in for the same treatment albeit the gold package, less layers, 5 year warranty, but should do the same trick.

    Oh, and you are not allowed to wash the car for 2 weeks, than they wash it and check if all is perfect, if not they make it perfect. Once a year you come in for a check to make it complete. Hope this helps, but Dr. Google and YouTube have a lot more info Wink

    how big are the boots? they dont look very high? will they fit a mountain bike in as I'm thinking of leasing one to replace my aging 2008 Defender 110 XS USW with 191,000 miles on the clock!

    I put a road bike in mine, it will not fit upright but fine on its side. Takes up most of the floor space.
