Tailored Automotive Detailing: 2009 Audi TTS

[D Tailor]

I picked up this vehicle at the client's office early Thursday morning. The client only has 3,700 miles on the clock, but she wanted me to perform the new car prep package I offer.

I have to say it was an absolute blast to drive. She nudged me to actually "drive" it...so I did If I had 66K to spend, I don't know that I'd end up with the TTS, but I am happy she did.

As a bonus, the client needed an SUV for the weekend. She called me up the Thursday night and asked if I wouldn't mind lending her my Xterra in exchange for the TTS. SHe thought I might enjoy it as my final weekend as a Bachelor....um.... I gotta say, after driving it for 3 days, I've really gotten used to it and all other cars are crap Especially my Xterra.

Anyway Here's the detail (sorry there aren't good sun pics, there wasn't any good sun):

AND THE MOST AMAZING PART OF THIS AUTOMOBILE:


I was able to pick up my mom to take her to the airport and I fit in a full sized suitcase and overnight bag in the trunk with no problemo (those are the client's bags pictured not my mom's).

Thanks for Looking!

Nice results, David!

Terrific job! Nice car, but I don't think a TTS would be my first choice in that price range either.

I do have a question perhaps best answered privately. I am doing a new car prep for someone at the end of the month. Could you give me some details on what you do and what you charge for your service? I want to offer a fair price to these folks.

Thanks.

[Edit]

Nevermind. I just checked your excellent webpage. I am going to forward the client to your site for pricing and services. I simply could not do it any better than what you've done there.

Fabulous.

Thanks SCoach! I appreciate it. Don't forget to mention to them that sometimes a new car may require a polish prior to sealing. I do that at no extra cost when necessary.


Thank you for your kind words...and you as well Apollo Auto!
