My garage booking was a smidge more pleasant. Got there and they had me down for a major service instead of the minor (3 filters difference for £120 extra i think not) then they didnt have the courtesy car so the service manager gave me his. Picked the car up. No issues. Free breakdown cover for a year and they washed and polished it.

Thank you Seat Westgate.

Glad it turned out ok for you, still it would be nice if things just went right without silly mistakes being made in the first place.

I changed from the D to G last week and noticed a difference straight away, especially to fuel consumption in the lower gears. The Rev D looked perfectly healthy still but must've been less efficient by design.

Just wrapped one of my b pillars gloss black. Not sure if I should do the other or just take it off not sold by how it looks.

Better off getting the pillars from Dave @ Sere.
The vinyl takes on the texture from the pillar covers, which looks a bit off.
I did the same thing on our last FR and took it off 10 minutes later

Exactly. I think it's the conclusion most of us, who have tried this, have come to.

Having said that, some back to black of that GTechniq C4 on it makes a world of difference. It looks quite nice actually.

Good idea, I've got some back to black stuff about somewhere might give it a go.
