Sorry to be an mpg bore but that sounds a bit better than the McCann petrol S. I really wanted one with a Sports Exhaust but 23 mpg on a sedate test drive scratched that itch.
SQ5 great colour !!
Just a quick question as it was Crystal Serum Light'd I am assuming the team that you used were not official Gtechniiq accredited detailers, as this product is readily available to anybody.
However It looks really good and it will save you hours when you come to do it yourself.

We managed to get between 19 and 30 mpg with our Petrol S depending on runs, for the best MPG it seemed to love motorway cruising speeds.
So you wouldn't have liked the 12.2 mpg i managed with a 911 C2 at the Silverstone PEC on Tuesday !
I didnt ask the question but it had been asked before I had it done - they choose CSL as it cures quicker and they are a mobile operation who bring a pop up garage and do the work at your home. Not sure what being an accredited dealer means - they are a relatively new business so maybe not. They did use only GTechniq products on the car...
It does look good - will see how it lasts. Will probably top up in 12 months - that will be the acid test I guess.

Looks good!
25 hours! I presume that includes the curing/waiting/overnight time?

The RS4 and RS6 have always struck me as something a bit special.

Nope - 9 hours the first day, 10 hours second day and 4 hours third day that I know of, there may have been a bit more! The prep takes a long time - especially the buffing the swirls out.
4 hours just doing inside - which I didn't think was bad (and excluding inside of glass which he did when doing outside of glass!)

Wow! That is a lot of time and more hours than average, I would hazard a guess...
It does look good.

Thanks - I am really pleased with the result (and the car!)
