Landing the Biggest Car Detailing Job in History for Top Gear (James Bond Special)

  • In this video I share my story about how I landed one of the biggest jobs in my life as a car detailer as I was put in charge of Looking after the Famous CARS from the James Bond Films.
    For me this was the highest honour and be chosen to look after them and it wasn’t just the fact it was famous cars. It was so much more to me working one of the biggest car shows in the world.
    So here's a little insight to some of the things that happen in my life as a car cleaner and want you guys to take note of this when i say it. You do not need to have the flashy van or the crazy equipment to make it in this business. All you need to is be the very best. IF you got the skills you got every bit of potential to make in the valeting or detailing business.

    Oh Dave, the capture of a moment in time from you. Probably the pinnacle of your professional career brought crashing down to a moment of shear reality. The greatest companion we all have, the absolutely most honest and unconditional love of a dog. Anyone that owns a dog will understand the pain of losing one, especially one so young. My heart goes out to you and I’m glad that you have something positive in your life to keep pushing you in a positive direction. I watch and love every video you produce and you never fail to make me smile. Anyone that has a negative or personal comment about you means nothing. Keep em coming fella and keep us all smiling 👌👌👌👌

    Life has a nasty habit of kicking you right in the family jewels when you are feeling just fine or had a great moment of any kind. Kudos to you for pulling through and there is no shame in admitting you are down or you depressed and looking for help. Talking about, especially to an audience (even if you dont see them really) is extremely therapeutic so you doing "silly" videos was great. Keep up the good work and stay strong.

Which shows in your personality throughout your videos, and I think that's why all of your followers have warmed to you.

    just discovered your channel whilst looking for reviews on the new AVA pressure washers, I'm loving it. been a hobby valeter/detailer for nearly 20 years but never made the jump to do it full time (i nearly did it about 7 years ago but my day job took and interesting career twist that i couldn't ignore), so just stuck to friends, family and neighbours cars. Then I found this video and the penny dropped!...... i was on set when you were detailing the cars at Dunsfold but i couldn't remember the name on your shirt, now it has all become clear. Awesome work on some stunning vehicles in really awful conditions. The finished episode was epic and you played a massive part in that, i know from experience how long it takes to get the shots perfect. Im now subscribed!! keep up the great work, love the no nonsense reviews, down to earth chat and trade tips, thanks for sharing the daily realities of doing this for a living. Thanks, can't wait for the next video. I'm off to replace my trusty old Nilfisk with the AVA evolution P80!

    Well done that man. What a great achievement. I am so happy for you. The cars looked great. It's amazing how the little details mean so much to the BBC as well. Their cameramen and women are so, so brilliant. The cinematography is on another level, especially wildlife stuff. Glad you saw what they did, learnt from it, and will use that experience to make your videos, even better. Even though they are already brill. Use the teflon technique (let it slide) on the few people who seem to want to be negative for no reason, probably just jealous of your success. Weekend detailers know what you do, how you do it and why. Loved how the snack man got a recognition from you for doing something simple, yet vital to you. You don't sell anything, just advice/experience. Top man 👏👏👏

    Just subscribed after watching a few videos and as a complete novice to correct car cleaning, polishing,waxing etc I like your ideas on not having to have the best equipment and products to produce good results on everyday cars. With a little knowledge and elbow grease good results are possible. Sorry to hear about your dog, as a dog owner myself I have dogs and lost dogs they are part of the family, my kids grew up with the love and friendship of our dogs and they are now dog owners themselves. Take time to grieve over your loss and for me it took 6 months before we decided to think about a new dog. Thanks again keep it real and down to earth and I will keep watching.

It came from Pinewood studios. It took me for ever to detail that thing! 🙄.

    I work as a chemo nurse. The last year has been one of the hardest of my career. Due to personal reasons last few years I've been driving crappy cars. This last year ive picked up several new hobbies. Car detailing been one of them. Ive bought a new car and regularly wash it. I get a huge smile on my face driving to work watching the beading on fresh wax. I start the shift with a positive. Channels like yours have been life liveable during lockdown. Im sorry to hear about your puppy, the loss of a pet can be heartbreaking. As for the haters. Well they are just filled with hate. Ignore them. Good luck with the channel. And keep on keeping on.

    Ignore the haters Dave, they have their reasons but largely it’s about jealousy or insecurity making them want to appear superior. It is possible to be civil and perhaps make suggestions in comments when a person disagrees, but I don’t understand the hate when you are doing a good job in difficult circumstances and providing us with entertainment and tips on your channel. I remember you losing your pup at the time and was gutted for you, but there are things that just cannot be influenced by man mate, and I am sure he/she had the best life with your family in that short time. Many congrats on the Top Gear gig, great job and thanks for sharing.
