Post-AMOC Road Trip: How My PPF Survived 2,000+ Miles & What the Journey Really Cost!

After 2,000+ miles to Austria and back, it’s time for a PPF health check. I visit Nick at Max Car Care (York) to inspect the Aston Martin Vantage after the AMOC 90th Anniversary trip—and reveal what the whole adventure really cost.

We go panel-by-panel on the Paint Protection Film (front, side sills, mirrors, headlights, rear arches), talk ceramic coating, edge sealing and tiny fixes, then I break down the full road-trip costs
