I'll get back to you on the stonechip protection - I don't think its ventureshield - because its on my home pc. 

Would appreciate it re the stone chip stuff.

I decided to let VW do my lifeshine to get my bag of goodies and I'm told if the stuff is not applied properly you don't get a good finish. Maybe thats just the banter. Plus when i get it I'm off driving!!!

What  you've been told about the Autoglym is true, but then you don't get a good finish if you don't wax a car properly.  So really your dealer is talking out of his rear-end - like most of them do - to earn some more money.    I would say however, that if you don't feel up to it, then let the dealer do it.

Illyun, did a bit more stone chip protection research. Seems Autofend takes a bit of stick from the TVR boys but they rate Paint Shield. What do you think?

I wouldn't trust what they say - rightly so but i'd imagine they would be pretty peeved with most things at the moment!

Hi fellas, been down to my dealer this afternoon and there she is in  the compound awaiting her PDI. YT 07 NNO will hit the streets next week Thursday to be precise  I have finally decided to order the Autoglym protection ( it has a 10 year warranty + Scotchguard interior + the thingy pack) retail price £300. Also taken out the GAP package, 3 years cover up to full retail cost of car, if stolen written off etc, retail price £300. My dealer at Doncaster who has always been excellent, has done the whole thing for £300 so its on offer too good to refuse I think. Taken Insurance in for VEL, also have had the USB lead fitted so just 9 days left to blast off , roll on .PS I dont mind the number plate at the moment cos me and the wife enjoy  the Vicar of Dibley.

Hi Guys

With regard to Autoglym it is a rip of from the dealer and would not recomend it at all! There are far better products out there for your car for far less money! Autoglym is just a name!

Like you tho illyun I will be watching my dealer every step of the way with regards to delivery and how they prep the car. He has been told not wash it with a power washer and not to wash it with any sort of detergent! The swearl marks and light scratches dealers leave after simply washing you car is a joke and when any of my cars go in for a service I make sure they know not to wash it!

I to would be interested in Paint Protection, I had it on my exige when I got it and that was Amourfend, I have heard they are similer quality product out there for less.

Thanks

Went drop the insurance off at the dealers. Went for a wander and there she was all clean and ready to go. I knew the car was in the country (last weeks) and ready for transport. So, it was like hold on............What a feeling.

Oooh - the above looks like mine! I'd get the dealer to remove that cheeky sticker - not unless they are willing to pay you an annual fee for free advertisement that is!

As far as Autoglym life shine is concerned, £300 is a rip off - i managed to get the full lifeshine kit from e-bay for £39.99. Quite a mark up there by the dealer for a bit of elbow grease - apart from which you'll be missing out on that 'intimate'  period of knowing what you got during the application!
