im still looking for the right car
but i think im being too picky for whats out there
my cars are always (as new) i look after them properly
well ive looked a few now
ive seen body filler in them,dints,scratches,gouges
and prices are too high in my opinion
some cars are for sale month after month after month
i also think S8 V10's will be around £10,000 next year
the cheapest i saw was £12,000 recently !
well,,im looking every day
there has to be one out there ????????

Wheel refurb, nothing unusual for a second hand car and something any prestige dealers would do if the wheels have even a slight kerbing. 2 wheels, well they could be on the same side and a result of kerb side parking. Workshop, well it would be their workshop doing the work so again normal.

If they had said new body panels, then thats a different ball game.

Ask to go and see it in process at the body shop as you're in the area? If it's having paint they can't hide the fact then!

All the main dealers I know and trust send there wheels outside the business for sorting.

Of the main dealers I know with onsite bodyshops, their work doesnt tend to be as good as dedicated specialists in my opinion.

So, imo its a normal and good thing its gone off site for them doing properly.

Give it a good look over on Friday, and let us know how it goes
