CarPlan Wonder Wheels
AutoEXPRESS' Product Honours WINNER for 2006, 2007 and 2008
Wonder Wheels is a consistently high performing alloy wheel cleaner. Easily lifts away dirt and brake dust. Contains: wheel cleaner, brush and dispensing container.
"Cleaning specialists CarPlan and Comma have been plugging it out at the top for years with their alloy wheel solutions. However, CarPlan yet again had the advantage with its Wonder Wheels cleaner. There is very little to choose between the two brands when it comes to shifting the worst of the baked-on grime, but Wonder Wheels has a slight edge on cost, thanks to the generously priced 1.0-litre pack, which also came with a cleaning brush. Our multiple champion still looks unlikely to be beaten anytime soon." AutoEXPRESS Product Honours 2007 - 23rd May 2007

Collinite No476s
AutoEXPRESS Best Buy Car Polish for 2008 and Product Honours Winner 2008
"Pastes aren't the fashionable choice among polish producers these days. but any extra effort involved in applying Collinite's No. 476S is definitely worthwhile. This is its debut in our annual polish and wax tests, and we were amazed at its effectiveness and stamina, even when compared to the usually dominant paint protectants. On our test bonnet, it shifted water faster than any of its rivals. Even a month later, the product was still beading so effectively that it was extremely difficult to get any fluid to stay on the Collinite section of the panel. And in spite of that hefty price, it is good value, because hard pastes are generally used more sparingly than liquid polishes. A great new champion." Auto EXPRESS Product Honours 7th May 2008
"BEST BUY First time in our tests, and a debut victory. The heart of US paste Collinite's success is its stamina - even the top sealants trailed it. Good value, too, as you use paste slower than liquid waxes." Auto EXPRESS March 2008

Superb glass cleaner from the masters of good value. Cleans windscreens, windows and mirrors inside and out.

Others matched its cleaning power in a competitive sector, but no other managed it at this price. At less then £4 for a litre of solution which works this well, it’s a combination that adds up to a winner for us. Our glass cleaning champion even has a pleasant citrus aroma."

Philips X-treme Power
Auto EXPRESS' CAR ACCESSORY OF THE YEAR 2007 and Product Honours Winner 2008
The NEW Philips X-treme Power headlamps project up to 80 per cent more light on the road ahead (depending on the headlight design). The light is powerful and intense, and the extra quality and quantity of light provided by X-treme Power lamps make them ideal for drivers who demand the ultimate performance. These bulbs are fully homologated for use in all European countries without restriction and are safe to use with plastic lenses.
Here's what Auto Express had to say about Xtreme Power: "This is so new, we could not randomly select test samples, so can't include it in our assessment. Yet performance of our pre production unit was staggering. Even compared with the current benchmark Plus per cent bulbs, the difference was immediate and dramatic. Philips claim an 80 per cent improvement over standard units, but we think that this is conservative." AutoEXPRESS
"ALL the electronic safety wizardry on today’s cars will not help if you can’t see the road ahead - which is why Philips’ X-treme Power takes our top accessory prize, as it sets a new benchmark for headlamp bulbs. When we tested it alongside both standard and high- performance bulbs, it put them all, literally, in the shade, Based on the light 75 and 50 metres ahead of the driver, the best beam rating the rest could manage was 107, but the new X-treme hit 146 - a massive difference easily seen on the light-tunnel wall. As with all high-performance bulbs, Philips has taken the tolerances allowed by the regulations and pushed them to the limit, not only burning the filament harder, but also reducing the glass envelope to increase gas pressure and deliver more Light. A brilliant road safety improvement." Auto EXPRESS Product Honours - 23rd May 2007

Turtle Wax Cockpit Cleaner
MATT FINISH 
Commended 2008 Product Honours - Trim Cleaner
Aerosol sproays seemed to fare well in our trim cleaner test this year, and the Turtle Wax Cockpit Cleaner gets a nod in this sector. It left a subtle matt finish on the trim, and also did the business when it came to removing our self-inflicted stains, with only slight traces of the grease and fruit juice remaining. It also claims to leave an anti-static finish, which slows the build-up of dust. The results certainly looked good, and it's ideal for achieving that low-gloss finish of most modern car interior trim panels." Auto EXPRESS Product Honours May 2008
