It's still at the Harwoods paint shop being done. It's then going for a service and a new brake pedal. So I shall get the fl2 back around the 30th. Can't wait to get rid of this evoke loan car, (still to embarrassed to drive it). |

That's taking them a long time! Mine's scheduled this Thurs and Fri, also at a Harwoods as it happens, which is how long they say they need. Not sure what I'll get to drive while it's in.... 2011 SD4 HSE Auto

Long time indeed. But customer relations are involved with the paint being fixed this time. Don't know if that makes a difference but it was mentioned that the boot might need replacing. I think they may change all the associated parts just be sure The paint dosnt rub again.

Car still not finished yet. But I spoke with the manager at the paintshop, he said a modified spacer kit is available from Land Rover, he did not know if it had been ordered for mine (useful). They also have clear corner gaskets that they can stick on but they are visible.

That paint finish is ... err...disgusting and I am surprised that a dealer has given you the car back in that condition, you can see from this list that there are many causes, usually operator error, they've given your car to the lacky for a quick blast over.

I'm not sure what I'm looking at but clearly there's a mismatch in paint quality!!!

My Ex girlfriend had a 6 month old black BMW 3 series, and after a fairly simple accident it went to BMW dealers body shop for the insurance repair.
