Default Decent Car Cleaner In London?

Not after detailing but I bought a RRS and the interior is rather scruffy to say the least. Think wet dog and you get an idea of the smell that greets me and the amount of hairs there are about, plus other general grubbiness.

So, looking for someone to do a GOOD job on the interior of the car, including tidying up/refreshing the leather seats but not to leave the steering wheel too slippery to hold and the place smelling like a tart's boudoir!

Anyone recommend someone in London that could come to my office one fine day and undertake this exercise please?

OK - engaged

(I always think have a little panic when I get together with Gossy as you never ever know where it will end up. Last time he cleaned my car (PTMW!), I gave him a job, which in turn led to another roller-coaster round of fun. He resigned then came back as a self-emp courier, then we got him into the Fleet dept, which was another roller-coaster...)

He's also the un-luckiest person around!

I could I know. I used to clean cars for a living myself for the PDI dept of a garage. However, I'm not paying for this so I don't need to give up my time/effort

Hence the broken wrist He's still doing what he can though and he's not resting it but he does need to get business going again so I've told him to get himself ready whilst he can't do too much
