A very fast and efficient car wash center. Staff is very helpful and had good experience. The vacuum cleaner is powerfully but need atleast 2-3 coins to clean full car.

Bit rushed, I was the only car there, didn’t get the wheel clean, guy with spray walked around like “I hate my job” if he’d got the spray on the wheels I think they would have cleaned up better

Lessons learned

It was my first experience using this type of car wash, not too sure what I expected. Some parts of my car were cleaned, but around 30% was completely missed so the car looks more than a little odd. Plus the parts of my car that were cleaned, don't look clean or shiny - they just look to be without dirt. I had to bend my passenger wingmirror back the correct way but thankfully there was no permanent damage. Helpful experience, lesson learned

I always use the IMO Car Wash. I always buy a wash on the IMO App before I go to the site. The Attendants are always friendly and the process is always so smooth.

Great service and happy with the end…

Great service and happy with the end result on my wife’s car, paying using my mobile wasn’t the easiest, due to my network providers poor coverage. I was offered a choice of paying using Apple Pay but only after struggling for 5mins using the QR code method. Wash service was fab though.

Friendly service

The service was great, a friendly helpful worker.
The car wash was average to be kind. There were streaks on the paint, finger prints were still visible on the bonnet, my alloy wheels still had excessive brake dust marks.

A waste

Quite confusing firstly. The staff member wasn't friendly, he didn't speak a word, just walked up with a cash machine. The actual service was poor. I left with dirt still on the car, marks on the bonnet overall a feeling of £15 had been wasted.

The issues you described with the staff, the car still being dirty, and the marks on the bonnet are certainly not up to our standards. We understand your frustration regarding the wasted money. We are committed to addressing these concerns and will pass your comments on to the relevant team for immediate review and improvement.

Miserable staff - literally gave the impression that I was being a hassle arriving and asking to use a QR code/ Pre paid.

Disappointing car wash

Member of staff didn’t seem very interested and didn’t do a very good job. After I left the car wash and arrived home, I noticed that the wheels were still dirty and covered in brake dust, and there was still remnants of bird muck on the paint work, even though the guy used the jet washer prior to entering the automated car wash.
Disappointing as this is my local car wash and it’s not cheap!
