A tired cabin can make a mechanically sound car feel older than it is. Start with cleaning and maintenance before spending on cosmetic accessories.
Remove rubbish, vacuum crevices, clean suitable surfaces and solve damp or persistent odours at their source. Test cleaning products on a hidden area first.
1. Deep-clean the cabin
Remove rubbish, vacuum crevices, clean suitable surfaces and solve damp or persistent odours at their source. Test cleaning products on a hidden area first.
2. Protect worn contact areas
Correctly fitted seat covers, floor mats and a steering cover can improve comfort and protect surfaces. Do not conceal faults from a prospective buyer.
3. Replace failed essentials
Repair broken bulbs, worn wipers and unsafe accessories using suitable parts and professional help where needed.
4. Organise daily items
A secure phone holder, charger and tissue holder can reduce clutter when placed away from controls and airbags.
