My wife has just bought a Mazda 2 Sport ex-demo, a lovely little car. When we looked at the car before purchase and could smell tobacco, the salesman assured us he would get rid of the smell, no problem. He applied Diamond Bright treatment both inside and out, which took the smell away for 3 hours. Then it returned. How can we get rid of it?

Find a valeter with an Odorgo fogging machine. This pumps a mist into the car that permeates the upholstery, carpets and headlining, helping to rid them of unpleasant smells.
