Well my beast is just been booked in for its first excursion to the panel shop

On picking up my car I found 2 paint imperfections. After my first service I noticed that would I thought was a paint chip in the leading edge of the rear passsenger door was actually chipped off form the front door hitting it. Damn doors are to close together and touching when the door gets closed.

So off it goes on the 24th May to get fixed up.

Bummer they only got ford focus loaners!!!

Oh well as long as it gets fixed adn ive meet the panel shop owner adn he seems nice enough. Maybe that's a bad thing :kissmy:

When I picked up mine it had scratches on the inside of a bootlid from the bootlid being shut without the rubber fitted. Also when I got it home I noticed a dent in the bonnet, looked like bonnet was shut onto something. Rang dealer and told them. They had it all fixed the next week, exellent job and service. Phantom is the only colour. :spoton:

Mine has a bubble in the tint. Getting fixed next service. :spoton:

It sucks when doors etc. rub on one another. Ive seen a few cars like that, one loner I had a few weeks ago, the front right hand panel didnt match the line in the door, I think the door might have need re-allignment (was an BA XL)....

Seems really wierd I thought the panels etc where computer and robot placed.

Ahhh maybe MegaHard software company is running things down and it stuffs up all the time.

I think I have some bubbles in my tint as well, but I will get these looked at in due course.
