As usual a good in depth report from #ITV (who still excel at #crime reporting) - in which they confirm the lad had indeed been #hooning #cars that belonged to his customers, and worse, he didn't even have a valid #driving #licence or #insurance at the time!
He had tried to delete the videos, but the old bill must have put a #Cellebrite set on his phone - they've got a few of them and work with #AdastralPark for stuff like this, there's also a special #Cybercrime unit that #SuffolkConstabulary operate in some rural area like #Saxmundham
I counted 2 * #BMW, a #Mercedes #AMG and a #GolfR in the video (if you own one of these, be very careful who you trust with #detailing / #valeting or even any #repair work!)

Lad from (now closed) father and son #detailing / #valeting company in #Felixstowe #Suffolk got 4 years #prison for #hooning a customers car in a busy surburban street, and crashing in to a pedestrian leading to a #fatality (whilst this #sentence seems light, its due to a guilty plea at Crown Court (would have started at 10 years otherwise, reduced by 2 years due to offenders young age)
His own middle aged dad didn't set him a very good example and refused to communicate with or compensate the owner of the GTR that was crashed

Exterior #bodywork wasn't in too bad shape (a few touch up repairs have been done over the years, there's usual stone chips but the #car had recently had a machine polish (I could tell by the residue left in odd corners!) and paint wasn't badly swirled, only needed a rinseless wash, a bit of hand polishing and a single stage machine polish on the doors and bonnets to get good results.
#Exhaust tips had been neglected, managed to make them a bit better with fine steel wool (the brillo stuff with soap) -- some chrome plating has flaked due to carbon being baked on still doesn't look too bad.
Also cleaned up inside of petrol tank flap (something I'm likely to be seeing rather a lot of as this car is a tad more thirsty than my last one!) #detailing #valeting

Finally a day when it was not pissing down nor below zero, so took the opportunity to do a maintenance wash on the #VWPolo to clear a months worth of winter grime #CarDetailing #Valeting #AutoDetailing #Detailing
