I have used the Auto Glym leather treatment on mine and it was ok but I can't say I'd rush to use it again.

As for a valeter - you could try Lellers [they are mobile cleaners and can be found on the Internet] - and Autoglym have numerous good products to restore and clean leather.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

17 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

picked up my 996 today Basalt Black with Boxster red interior, although more terracotta my wife thinks, still very nice ;-) got great performance and a suprising return on journey home 33 mpg I may have to get another one to commute in ;-) Just one issue the valet was aweful still full of rubbish and the seats had been treated with polish, so has now ruined my jumper! Anyone have any good ideas where I could get a good valet from? Also thinking of getting all the leather done to make it fresh again. Any creams out there that would do the job? Will clean it properly tomorrow and then post pics ;-)

POST 2Original post

Good luck with your new car. As for a valeter - you could try Lellers [they are mobile cleaners and can be found on the Internet] - and Autoglym have numerous good products to restore and clean leather. Many happy and safe miles.

POST 3Original post

Hi Nathan, Excellent external colour choice, my favourite [ ] For Leather: Gliptone liquid leather and a nice warm day. Two products - first the cleaner and then the conditioner (feeder)

POST 8Original post

Valet ? - depends what you want, but if you want the works and the car to look like it left the factory then log onto www.detailingworld.co.uk and seek out one of the companies on there local to you. You will be able to see examples of their previous work too. You need to look in the forum section called 'The Studio' No silicon shine guys on there.

POST 9Original post

Agreed, but what is the comment about a warm day? Is it better to use on a warm day? - did my first go with it back in the depths of winter. PS - congrates to Nathan on the car, black is the best external colour!

POST 10Original post

Congrats on the purchase Nathan, and welcome! Mark - you are sooooo wrong. Silver is quickest, so what does that make black? (Thought I'd get that one in before Rob and Zeb start telling lies about blue! [ ] [ ] )

POST 11 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Guys thanks for the replies i have now attached a small picture although it was taken late tonight as i just seem to be so busy and it seems word is out in the family so everyone wants a ride in it, once it carms down i will get some better pics and post them. thanks for the help so far. Nathan

POST 12Original post

Looks great, hope you have many happy miles. Boxster red is a bit of a marmite colour on the forums, some love it, others don't. Mine has it and I like it. I have used the Auto Glym leather treatment on mine and it was ok but I can't say I'd rush to use it again. Obviously Richard beat me to it but nice as Basalt is, blue ones are definitely quicker...

POST 13Original post

Sorry Richard I'm with Rob and Zeb on this blue is definitely quickest (or it will be once the gearbox is sorted) [ ] T'other Mark

POST 14Original post

"Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black." [ ]

POST 15Original post

I think blue is the quickest too. I remember 2 months of having to give various people a ride in the car when I first got it.

POST 16Original post

Ah but remember even good old Henry realised the Model T moved faster when offered in other colours! [ ][ ]

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Guys I'm going to join in on this BLACK is defo Fastest!! ;-) Minny I don't mind giving the odd ride it's when they asked " can I have a go now" it's almost as bad as asking can I have go on ya wife ;-)
