I had the same thing when my car was two days old. A PDR guy will be able to sort it for 60 notes.

On a side note I curbed my front left alloy today. The damage is about 8 inches long right at the edge. I could have cried!

My bro is a bit of a car nut and regually restores old cars. When he saw the damage he said take some wet and dry sand paper to it and re lacquer the edge of the wheel yourself. No harm in trying I said to myself so off to Halfords I went.

Wow you should see the improvement after a simple sand with 240 grit and finished off with some 1200 grit paper. Well happy!

Removed all of the irritating stickers the dealer plastered over my car. One on each side window and one on the rear screen (which wasn't even stuck on straight). All nice and clean now though.  :smiley:

this is the only thing that bothers me with the mk7.the boot is too small, yes it may be deeper but the other dimensions are smaller.
