    I'll second that. It takes ages to load and the link to contact them doesn't appear to work either:rolleyes:

    LOL, I thought the same thing. It doesn't even work in Opera - I got a black screen with the text:

    FAIL (the browser should render some flash content, not this).

    so I was already put off before I tried it in IE...

    I'm a little cautious on this.

    Do they clingfilm your car?

    A couple of hours and some polish and you'd get similar results!

    I just love the way that all their customers said exactly the same thing about this permashine craic. Sounds just the smallest bit suspect...... hhhhhmmmmm, seems people will do anything to avoid "hard work"

    I've seen all those pictures of the NSX they've used on that flash thing a few years ago around the 'net. Doesn't inspire confidence.

    Can anybody actually comment on the work they carry out? Fair enough the website leaves a lot to be desired but they have to start somewhere and if they're only relatively new in business, then they might not have that many customer references.
    I kinda enjoy polishing/waxing my car :D
    The key benefits?
    • Easy to clean, no need to polish ever again

    €350 seems quite good considering they collect your car, apply the Supaguard stuff, valet your car and then return it to you.
    I priced a similar service in the UK a while back and it was around the GBP£350 mark.

    I borought my car over from the UK, it had the Supaguard treatment from new.
    In fairness it looked nice and shiney (red) but there were swirl marks all over the car.
    The Supaguard kits can be bought on ebay for about £30, so the dealers are making huge profits on these kits.
    http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/SUPAGUARD-COMPLETE-PROTECTION-PACKAGE_W0QQitemZ160086732407QQihZ006QQcategoryZ72201QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

    I bought some good quality paint sealants and waxes and did a better job for a fraction of the cost of one of these treatments.

    Checkout www.smartcarcare.ie/catalog there are some packages on there that would be far better quality and value.

    Neil.
