Good B'ham Car Valeting places?

Can anyone recommend any good car valeting place in Brum? want to get a full valet done with a polish but can't be arsed doing it myself!
 
When you say valet, do you mean a machine polishing, i.e. paint work back to as new condition, or just a quick internal and external wash/clean?

There is a place in Touchwood (Solihull) called "H2O" I know they are good. Regularly have expensive cars in there and cost quite a bit.

Don't know if they machine polish though.

EDIT: Apparently they're in the Mailbox too

Machine polishing usually involves a rotary machine and different pads which cut the paint and remove light scratches and swirl marks...

Hand polishing is good but you will struggle to remove the swirling.

Yes you'll get a decent shine from hand polishing but will be left with minor imperfections.

Machine polishing only needs to be done once or twice a year if that.

Do it too much and you remove the clear coat protecting the paint underneath.
