It's been quite a while since I have posted anything on Autopia. Between a newborn baby girl and lots of detailing business, I have some good excuses for my absense!
My most dedicated client just gave me a call about an urgent detail he needs done tomorrow. He has a limo bus...best guess is about 25-30 feet, that he needs "cleaned" (wash, bug removal, interior clean up, wax if time allows) for a client event he has on Thursday. This is a very good client of mine...usually is good for about 30 details per year as he is an avid car collector. I normally give him a substantial discount off of my retail rate (about 35% off) due to the volume, and the fact he takes care of me on the tipping end.
What would be a fair price for a vehicle of such size? For those that are unfamiliar with what I am talking about, it is basically a Ford F-450 chassis, turned into a very lavish bus. Leather limo-style seating inside, mirrors, 2 plasma TVs, etc. I would not be buffing (yet, as a full detail is scheduled for later this month), carpet would only be lightly shampooed, interior dressed, leather cleaned/conditioned, exterior wash and wax.
My apologies in advance if this is not the right thread...just looking for some advice.
