18 Months Later, Still Mirror Black

This black BMW M2 has visited us every month for about 18 months on Concierge Care maintenance. Its ceramic coating still beads water, its cognac leather looks fresh and its black paint holds a deep gloss.

Black paint shows every mark, so quality care matters. A monthly visit keeps the coating performing and the finish glossy through every season.

Why Black Paint Rewards Regular Care

Black is the most revealing colour a car can wear. Dust, water spots and fine marks all show against it, which is why a black M2 looks incredible when it is cared for properly.

The owner's ceramic coating gives the paint a strong foundation. Monthly maintenance keeps that coating clean and working, so the gloss stays deep from one season to the next.

Month After Month on Concierge Care

This M2 has stayed on its monthly schedule for a year and a half. Each visit follows the same careful routine, so the paint, wheels and cabin get the same attention today as they did on the very first visit.

The owner also uses our valet service, with pickup and drop-off arranged around their day. Every vehicle in our care is fully insured for its value, including on public roads.

What Does a Concierge Care Visit Include?

Each visit starts with a heavy foam pre-soak and pressure rinse, followed by a two-bucket contact wash with a microfibre mitt, hand-brushed wheels and tyres, a gentle clean of the cognac leather and a careful interior refresh.
