The Myth of the $10,000 Car Wash

$10,000-Car-Wash

We live in a society where the standard issue bikini will cost you around $69, give or take. However, you can also spend as much as $30 million on a 150-Karat diamond bikini, such as the one that appeared in the 2006 issue of Sports Illustrated.

You can spend a couple bucks for a Big Mac in the States, or you can travel to Iceland where it will cost you $7.50. Your standard box o’ wine will set most folks back $5 or $6 bucks, but you can also choose to buy a commercial bottle of Chateau d’Yquem Sauterne (1787) for $64,000. And if you think this stuff is drinkable, you’d get more enjoyment out of a glass of lighter fluid.

So it Shouldn’t surprise you that there is such a thing as a $10,000 car wash. There are only a few guys in the world who offer such an expensive service, such as Paul Dalton of Surrey, England. Each treatment can take up to two weeks, including 50-phases of washing and contaminant stripping, before the final hand rubbed coat of limited edition Brazilian carnauba wax. Such a wax comes in its own crystal case, featuring a certificate of authenticity, and hand engraved ownership plaque (including the owner’s name and serial number).

For the price of $7,800, Paul will even run out to your house on a Sunday afternoon just to clean a dollop of bird sh** off your hood. Now that’s service!
