Baron Schofield

Valeter – York
Hometown: Still local, still cool, and definitely the one keeping your car cleaner than your conscience.

Meet Baron — York’s resident shine specialist and the man who proves that the art of valeting is alive, well, and looking spotless. When he’s not buffing cars to mirror perfection, you’ll probably find him out on a long walk with his dogs — his idea of therapy (and, we suspect, his secret fitness plan).

Food-wise, Baron’s comfort pick is simple and solid: pasta. Doesn’t matter the shape, sauce or setting — if it’s Italian and it fills the plate, he’s happy.

His dream machine? The Nissan Skyline R35, because nothing says “I’ve arrived” quite like the purr of a twin-turbo legend. Until then, he’s content making everyone else’s cars look like they belong in a showroom — fair trade, really.

When it comes to dream destinations, Amsterdam tops the list — canals, coffee shops, and cool vibes, it’s basically Baron’s spiritual home.

He once wanted to be a DJ, and honestly, we can see it. He’s got the calm confidence, the cool playlist, and the ability to make everything flow just right. Speaking of playlists — his go-to sound is Sammy Virji, the UK garage DJ who delivers the perfect soundtrack for a detailing day.

So whether he’s waxing a bonnet, walking the dogs, or dropping beats in his head while he works, Baron keeps York’s cars gleaming and the vibes just right — smooth, stylish, and a little bit bass-heavy.
