We have the Horl. It’s not quite impossible to mess up, but with a bit of care and attention produces amazing results.
If you want something super sharp, get their finer additional stones and the strop.
Occasional strop and use of fine stone is good for weekly maintenance. You can deal with chips maybe every 3-4 months using the coarser stones, albeit still much more quickly than using whetstones.

I live in Barcelona and would say it depends… a lot of bikes are absolute workhorses and look a bit sketchy.
On the other hand, there’s a lot of young biker crews who have the latest sports/super/naked bikes that are just exceptionally well looked after and always look brand new.
I’d say if it looks in good condition here, that normally means it is. Very few people wash their cars/bikes because of the hosepipe ban. Those that do are usually the ones that really care.
Edit: check motos.net or Mundi Moto for a huge range of bikes - the latter being a single company network of dealers.
