    More than likely a guy with zero experience and even less interest so wouldn't let them near a car.

    Yes it does appear to be so. Thought perhaps the bigger stores were going to have a bay where they would carry out a vacuum and a bit of a polish.

    Jesus are there not enough irish owned valeting companies offering valets for next to nothing, in every car park in the land. Do we really need halfrauds in the equation.

    This is interesting. Halfords in the UK offer a lot of services like this, they even do SMART repairs at their branches. Wonder if they'll branch out into that here.

    Think the service will only be as good as the people they outsource to do the work though!

    halfords servicing in the UK wasnt the best, Daewoo used them as a service network in the 90's.

    I wouldn't let them near my car, and it's a POS.
