Why the range is so wide
The gap between £25 and £3,995 mostly separates a routine wash or valet from paint protection film installation, rather than one business over- or under-charging. PD Valeting, a one-person mobile operation covering Southampton, the New Forest, Romsey and Totton, publishes its two cheapest lines here, £25 for engine cleaning and £40 for a mini valet, and notes separately that its full valet packages run from roughly £70 up to £110 depending on vehicle size, though those aren't broken into individual published prices. MLS Valeting's mobile menu sits in the middle, from a £40 mini valet through a £70 full valet to a £100 ultimate valet, with prices quoted as a from-price that can rise for larger vehicles or excessive pet hair. OnPoint Detailing's figures, all quoted plus VAT, are a different category of work entirely: wrapping part or all of a car in paint protection film, from a £1,295 front-end wrap up to a £3,995 satin PPF conversion, which is why its prices dominate the top of the table.
