I now know of 4 owners of Black Evoques who have had a bad scratch on the bonnet on delivery, I wonder if there is a link like a poor handling process on the line or in transporting it that makes black ones more prone to bonnet damage?
Spiderman, of the forum had a whole new bonnet fitted

Wow looks great and gives you peace of mind, my OG Prestige due in August and dealer asked if I wanted a similar treatment. I think it worth doing then he quoted £499 which I thought steep and may be rushed by dealer, I was wondering if the dealer price is standard for this type of treatment or is it a inflated price dont really want to know how much you paid just is dealer price on par. Enjoy your Evoque

I think it's definitely worth doing, really does keep the car looking great...sure it's expensive on top of everything else you have to pay out for but will last for years. If you get an independent detailer to do it, they'll also inspect the paintwork and let you know if they spot any flaws/problems.

Who applied it ?? As I have worked with Gtechniq for sometime now

I don't know why C1 was used on that occasion, but P1 was used on my new Evoque and my accredited detailer had to machine polish it because there were so many flaws in the paint, plus I know he wasn't giving me B/S because I was there when he showed me.
Then my car was treated to EXO and not C1, because the ambient temperature was warm enough to use the brand new product.

Yes I agree but you can't put Exo ontop of C1 as it doesnt bond and a waste of £120 for a can of Exo. Also a waste of C1 as well as this needs 12 hrs minimum to allow anything on it. Also Exo shouldnt be applied outside !!!
If this was followed a far better finish would have been achieved !!!
