I've not even had it 2 months yet. Whilst cleaning it on Sunday noticed a scratch on the roof, (thankfully it's not gone through the paint layer). As I got around to the other side, i noticed to my horror a scratch and a slight dint on the wing/bonnet. All I can think is that its has had a stone thrown at it. I'm gutted.

Are these mobile dint/scratch guys any good or would it be better to go back to the dealer. Am I going to be able to see it once they "fixed" it. Incidentally I have a MCS Laser blue/black.

The mobile guys are really good some barsteward took the Mini bages of my MCS & scaped the paint right down to the metal. Got it sorted for £40 + badges.

Know how you feel mate, some little git has done my bonnet right down to the metal, about 2 feet long, gonna cost me £120 to get it sorted! So i can definitely sympathise with you.

You can add me to the list too. I have acquired a dent in one of the A panels. Someone's obviously been a bit over zealous when opening their door.

Fortunately it's very minor but I'm gutted all the same. You've all got my sympathy.
