Hi Guys,

As per the title anyone know of a good car wash place around Sydney's west area ? I have looked on google and there are a few but not to sure whether they are any good and will treat the car well.

Hopefully one that gives free coffee also =)

Cheers

Depends how much you want to spend and what niceties you require (e.g. a/c to sit in whilst you wait).

I personally take my Evo to Carwash cafe 369 on North Rocks Rd (in North Rocks) every other week as it's $12 for outside wash + dry and $25 for inside as well. You can use the coupon in the local paper to get the inside/outside for $20. Every 7 car washes yields you a free outside wash. One coffee is included (the mocha is decent). Only downside to this place is you have to sit outdoors but undercover/shade.

I'd be careful of the "Happy Car wash" in Castle Hill- they advertise $10 hand washes but it doesn't include drying which is an extra $5!

I used to go to Star Car Wash in Castle Hill but it was a bit pricey ($23 with no coffee for just an outside wash). The place where you sit is very comfy though with nice chairs. Good for doing work/reviewing documents.

Scooters on North Rocks Rd is also alright but I found their quality in drying wasn't that great- and they also cost more than Carwash 369. Scooters also has lousy coffee but at least you get to sit inside in a/c comfort and watch TV. The internet never works there despite them advertising free internet.

They are a "Meguiars Preferred Detailer", whatever that's worth. They have a range of prices/services including clay barring etc. Don't know about the coffee as I don't touch the stuff - however I believe you get one free. Seating is both indoor (A/C) or outdoor.

It's in Baulkham Hills.

Golden Cafe Carwash
74 Railway Parade, Canley Vale NSW 2166

$25 inside and out wash.
They freshen your interior, polish wheels and tyres.
Normally they do a good job but it you have specifics you want cleaned properly, just tell them.

E.g. a trip back from the beach sand everywhere. Gave them the heads up.
When the job was done absolutely no sand.

Forgot to mention Star Car Wash in Castle Hill have a great owner. I wasn't happy with the job once and emailed them, and they offered me a free car wash to compensate without many questions. Very surprised by this.

I checked this and it's machine washed at car spa. Like the servos.

So do they hand wash?
