Protective Coating

[John Simnett]

I am thinking of getting a protective coating on my XE but they want to charge me $1000 anybody got any better ideas?

$1000, seems reasonable.

Hi John, 

I had a coating for my S type which worked well for the guaranteed 3 years. The cost 6 years ago was £290 - about $400 then.

Three years ago my wife had a ceramic coating for her Toyota Yaris and it was a similar price and the Yaris is still in a great condition.

I don't know what the going rate would be in the USA, but a lot depends on how good the coating is.  They improve year by year.

Regards,

Peter.
