Defo some sort of repair has been done as the cars aren't painted with the glass/lights/ and seals in place, yet another QC problem. I would suggest that a paint problem was picked up at the end of the production process, in the final QC check, and the car sent back to the bodyshop to have more paint blown on then never rechecked. Sad

I concur with Caroline, reject it and get another order in.

Ordered: 25th Jan 2012 - Completed: 8th March 2012

Dynamic Coupe SD4 Auto / Fuji / Pano Roof / Tech Park 2 / Style 6 Alloys / Privacy Glass / Adaptive Xenons / Black H'lining / Cold Climate Pack / Auto-dim Mirror / Aux Heater / Roof Rails / Mud-flaps

You can see a clear masking up line along the back window, I am baffled how it has passed QC at the factory and the pdi the dealer carried out.
