Definitely want to see the follow up on this V40 getting a clean! Have to agree with you about AG V&R Care, it's the perfect consistency. I find myself using it even though I have doubts about its durability just because it's so easy to use. Great tip about letting it soak in though, I'll have to try that next time I clean my bay. Great video.

Great video really useful to see how you approach an older more exposed engine. One thing I noticed and I see at least one other picked up on - it's much safer to disconnect the negative terminal of the battery, as you're isolating the bodywork.

Weird that people complain about used wash water getting into the ground. That's what you want. Unless its pure oil the ground will slowly absorb and filter the water. Rain will speed up the process. In the US most cities encourage people to divert wash water to the ground, away from storm systems.

I'd love to see a detailed going over of the exterior as well. You cover some stunning cars but sometimes it's more satisfying seeing an old workhorse get the superstar treatment. I'll have to wash the bay down on the Megane mk2 estate I recently acquired for my up and coming pool business a good detailing, it's overall tidy and complete but filthy and neglected (the car, not the business!) I'll be trying the Autoglym products used here, I've been using the resin polish and body wash for years now and always rated it.

Most modern cars are pretty well covered with the plastics so as long as you approach it with a bit of common sense and a few bags and a roll of tape to cover any sensitive bits, you’ll be grand. Some cars don’t have undertrays so the engines are designed to withstand water. That’s my understanding of it anyway.

It doesn't actually matter if you take off the positive first. It's only advised that you take the negative off first to avoid you shorting your spanner on the body or engine. If you're careful and use insulated tools or hold your spanner in a way that it contacting something grounded would be impossible, then it's really no issue which terminal you remove first. However, it is recommended to do negative first just to be safe, but it certainly isn't a rule.
